Artemis Ultrasound Scanner
World’s first VHF digital ultrasound eye arc-scanner
The Artemis® ophthalmic ultrasound is the world’s first digital eye arc-scanner. The device is designed to provide detailed cross-sectional images of the cornea and anterior segments of the eye for diagnostic and post-surgical assessment.
The Challenge
StarFish was engaged to develop an Artemis 1 prototype. This was later followed by design and pilot production of the Artemis 2.
How StarFish Helped
With technical experts at Cornell University, StarFish developed the technology which included:
- Extensive human factors, industrial, electro-mechanical, electrical and software design
- Moving high-frequency ultrasound scan head, fluid interfa system and system software
- Disposable patient interface
The Results
- Developed the technology into a marketable product
- Highly successful prototypes with 20 pre-production units place worldwide (Artemis 1 has been running for ten years)
- New IP for client
- CE mark and FDA clearance
