I am the Warehouse and Logistics Supervisor here at Acertara. I enjoy hikes, spending time with my daughter, and the rare chances I get to sleep in. If you could pick one theme for Acertara to turn into a book about the company, what would it be? Acertara’s journey should be portrayed as a fantastical … Continue reading
The Corner Office Wayne Moore 4/9/2024 We are seeing a virtual explosion in the diffusion of new medical devices that have incorporated some level of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms ranging in application from assistive diagnosis, to augmented diagnosis, to autonomous diagnosis. The first two require physician interaction and serve as diagnostic tools. Autonomous does not … Continue reading
The Corner Office Wayne Moore 3/12/2024 We have been asked multiple times over the past two decades why Acertara goes to such pains and expense in testing diagnostic ultrasound probes. Two words say it all – The Patient. It is because of the patient that Acertara Labs testing facility sought to be accredited both through … Continue reading
Hello, I’m Cris. I grew up in Longmont and went to college at Regis University where I studied Mathematics and Computational Physics. I’m a data scientist here at Acertara. That mainly consists of manipulating Acertara Equipment Management portal, ATLAS probe tester, and different data sources to create tools and answer questions to drive business development … Continue reading
Ultrasound is a tried-and-true technology, applicable across a spectrum of clinical applications. It’s becoming more critical with the shift toward value-based care (VBC). Today’s technology offers decisive point-of-care ultrasounds, delivery, and treatment monitoring as part of complex care plans. Yet, unlocking the full potential of ultrasound in VBC requires more than just a skilled hand … Continue reading
Healthcare is in a period of necessary evolution, with traditional fee-for-service models giving way to a focus on delivering value: providing improved outcomes at lower costs. This journey requires innovative tools, and one imaging technology stands out: ultrasound. Its accuracy, efficiency, accessibility across a myriad of clinical applications, and lower cost are proving remarkably suited … Continue reading
Point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) has rapidly gained traction in healthcare for its capacity to prompt faster diagnosis and treatment decisions. Still, the integration of PoCUS into regular healthcare practices raises important regulatory and ethical considerations. What constitutes appropriate training and certification for administering PoCUS procedures? How will equipment be repaired, and to what quality standards should … Continue reading
Ultrasound technology — a longtime staple in medical imaging — is now emerging as a pivotal tool in the evolution of point-of-care diagnostics. This leap forward is marked by accessible applications, noninvasive procedures, and real-time results. As ultrasound becomes increasingly sophisticated, with AI-enabled workflow intelligence and devices designed for portability, its role in enhancing patient … Continue reading
The Corner Office Wayne Moore 2/13/2024 I almost never use a long quote to begin an article that I am writing, but given that I am providing that backdrop in this sentence my record remains intact. Having said that the quote below provides an ideal introduction to this month’s topic. “In fact, the phrase (BCI) … Continue reading
