Remoltra
Remoltra is a remote color doppler ultrasound system designed for elderly and disabled patients who cannot travel to a hospital. The system consists of an imaging device placed in the hospital and a smaller home device delivered to the patient. The patient lies down and places the home device over the upper torso. Internet of Things technology connects both units, so the doctor can move a force feedback pen that guides a robotic arm holding the probe. Skin resistance data is returned to the pen, so pressure can be judged from a distance.
