Coagulation analyzer is a laboratory and point-of-care medical device used to measure how blood forms clots, helping clinical teams assess hemostasis and monitor therapies that affect coagulation. In modern hospitals and clinics, coagulation testing supports high-stakes workflows such as emergency bleeding assessment, perioperative planning, anticoagulation management, and intensive care monitoring—where accuracy, turnaround time, and traceability directly affect operational safety.

A Hematology analyzer is a laboratory medical device designed to measure and characterize blood cells and related parameters, most commonly as part of a complete blood count (CBC). In modern hospitals and clinics, it is a core piece of medical equipment that supports timely clinical decision-making, efficient triage, and ongoing monitoring across many specialties.

An Immunoassay analyzer is laboratory medical equipment used to measure specific substances (analytes) in patient specimens by leveraging antigen–antibody binding. In practical hospital terms, it is a core in vitro diagnostic (IVD) clinical device that helps laboratories deliver timely, standardized results that support screening, diagnosis support, and ongoing monitoring across many clinical pathways.

Clinical chemistry analyzer is a core laboratory medical device used to measure chemical components in patient specimens—most commonly serum or plasma—to support diagnosis, monitoring, and clinical decision-making. In practical terms, it is the hospital equipment that turns routine blood and fluid samples into standardized numerical results at scale, with built-in quality controls and traceability.

Nuclear medicine gamma camera is a core imaging medical device used to detect gamma photons emitted from radiopharmaceuticals inside the body and convert that information into diagnostic images. Unlike many purely anatomical modalities, a gamma camera primarily supports *functional* imaging—how organs and tissues behave—often before structural changes are visible.

An **Elastography ultrasound system** is an ultrasound-based medical device designed to estimate tissue stiffness (elasticity) and display it alongside conventional ultrasound images. In many hospitals and clinics, elastography has become a practical add-on capability to standard ultrasound because it can provide additional, non-invasive information that may support clinical assessment and follow-up—particularly in organs where stiffness changes are clinically relevant.

A Doppler ultrasound system is a diagnostic imaging medical device that uses ultrasound plus Doppler principles to visualize anatomy and assess motion—most commonly blood flow in arteries and veins, and movement within the heart. In day-to-day hospital and clinic operations, it supports rapid, non-ionizing, bedside-capable assessment that can guide triage, monitoring, and procedural workflows across many departments.

Ultrasound probe endocavitary is a specialized ultrasound transducer designed to be inserted into a body cavity (most commonly vaginally or rectally) to generate high-resolution images of nearby anatomy. Because the probe sits close to the target organs, it can provide clearer detail than external (transabdominal) scanning in many situations—often with less acoustic “distance” for the ultrasound beam to travel.

Ultrasound probe phased array is a diagnostic ultrasound transducer designed to create a fan-shaped (sector) image by electronically steering and focusing the ultrasound beam. It is most closely associated with cardiac imaging (echocardiography), but it is also used in many bedside and critical care workflows where access between ribs, rapid acquisition, and strong temporal resolution matter.

Ultrasound probe curvilinear is a widely used ultrasound transducer designed to image deeper anatomy with a broad field of view. It is a core piece of hospital equipment in radiology, obstetrics, emergency medicine, and point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) programs because it balances penetration, coverage, and workflow efficiency in high-volume clinical environments.

Ultrasound probe linear is a high-frequency, “linear array” ultrasound transducer used with diagnostic ultrasound systems to produce high-resolution images of superficial anatomy. It is a core piece of hospital equipment in radiology, emergency care, anesthesia, critical care, vascular access services, and outpatient clinics—often used for both diagnostic imaging and real-time procedural guidance.

An **Ultrasound machine cart** is the mobile platform that supports an ultrasound system (or a portable ultrasound unit), along with its accessories, power distribution, and storage. In many hospitals, it is the difference between ultrasound being a “room-based” service and ultrasound being a truly bedside, point-of-care capability.

An MRI compatible patient monitor is a specialized patient monitoring medical device designed to measure and display vital signs in and around the MRI environment, where strong magnetic fields and radiofrequency energy can make conventional hospital equipment unsafe or unreliable. In practice, most products used in MRI suites are labeled **MR Conditional** (meaning they can be used only under specific conditions), and they rely on non-ferromagnetic materials, carefully managed cabling, and shielding or fiber-optic technologies to reduce risk and interference.

An MRI scanner is a high-value imaging medical device that uses strong magnetic fields and radiofrequency energy to generate detailed images of soft tissues, organs, vessels, and the musculoskeletal system—without using ionizing radiation. In modern hospitals and diagnostic networks, MRI capacity is tightly linked to clinical decision-making, service-line growth (neurology, orthopedics, oncology, cardiology), and patient experience.

A CT contrast injector is a powered medical device used to deliver intravenous contrast media (and often a saline flush) at a controlled flow rate, volume, and pressure during computed tomography (CT) imaging. It is a core piece of hospital equipment in modern radiology because timing and consistency of contrast delivery strongly influence vascular and organ enhancement, scan quality, repeat-scan risk, and department throughput.
