Presentation / Conference Contribution
Moorehead, A., Adams, C., Stinson, M., Porter-Armstrong, A., Gardner, E., Donnelly, J., Deegan, S., Nixon, J., Bader, D., & Lyder, C. Exploring the application of ultrasound technology in pressure ulcer prevention – an international multidisciplinary team study. Presented at European Tissue Repair Society: Joint meeting with the Tissue Viability Unit, St Georges' Bay, Malta

Introduction: High frequency ultrasound (HFUS) can create real-time two-dimensional images of internal structures to examine the first few centimetres depth of sub-dermal soft tissue, thus may have the potential to detect tissue changes in pressure u...

Repeatability of high frequency ultrasound scanning in pressure ulcer prevention: can it be achieved? (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Adams, C., Moorehead, A., Stinson, M., Porter-Armstrong, A., Gardner, E., Donnelly, J., Deegan, S., Nixon, J., Bader, D., & Lyder, C. (2008, September). Repeatability of high frequency ultrasound scanning in pressure ulcer prevention: can it be achieved?. Presented at 11th Annual European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel Meeting, Bruges, Belgium

Introduction High frequency ultrasound scanning (HFUS), at a frequency of 20MHz, allows real-time two-dimensional imaging of internal structures in a non-invasive manner and can identify areas of oedema underlying the skin. To date, no studies explo... Read More about Repeatability of high frequency ultrasound scanning in pressure ulcer prevention: can it be achieved?.
