Diagnose Treat Monitor Perform
UTC is a diagnostic ultrasound company that exploits the information present in ultrasound signals to the extent that it sets new standards in imaging and diagnosis of tendons, ligaments and cartilage.
Unique 3-D imaging and novel Tissue Characterization.
Collecting images at 0.2 mm intervals.
Compounding the contiguous transverse images into a 3-D data block, gives a instant visualization of transversal, sagittal and coronal planes.
3-D rendered image giving a real-time surgeons view that can be scrolled through.
In tendons 4 different echo types can be discriminated consistently, visualized in 3 planes of view and quantified for precise monitoring.
Tomographic and 3-D visualization of partial Achilles tendon rupture, just proximally to the calcaneal bone.
UTC-analysis of normal Achilles tendon: quantification of normal structural integrity.
UTC-analysis of abnormal, tendinotic, Achilles tendon: quantification of degree of disintegration.

Note the innovation of ‘ultrasound tissue characterisation’-a novel way of quantifying ultrasound images. An innovation from the thoroughbred racing industry and possibly the next big thing in imaging-this is a ‘giant leap’ rather than a small step.

- Quote from the editorial “Ultrasound as the new stethoscope” in Br J Sports Med 2010 (December);44 (16), by Professor Karim Khan, Editor of the British Journal of Sports Medicine.
