To ensure safe patient examinations, simulated ultrasound practice comes into its own when teaching invasive transvaginal (TV) scanning procedures.
Providing a comprehensive and fully supportive self-directed educational experience, ScanTrainer helps trainees build confidence in this hard-to-learn skill and allows them to demonstrate the required levels of competence prior to scanning real patients.
The real-feel transvaginal haptic uses force feedback technology to replicate the ‘feel’ of what it is like to scan a real patient. The endo-cavity haptic will track the movement of the probe to measure a trainees’ performance and technique and then provide feedback.
Full anatomy real patient scans replicate what a student would see on a real ultrasound machine concurrent with ALL planes movement with the probe haptic. Doppler functions allow students to practice taking measurements.
The Learning Management System (LMS) is the personalised platform through which users can easily access the extensive functionality of ScanTrainer. Tutors can use the LMS to keep track of trainees’ progress and set up customised learning programs, while trainees can access their modules and track their individual progress.
Case Generator, which is part of our ScanTrainer Cloud, enables tutors to upload their own scans and create their own patient cases, allowing for further transvaginal scanning opportunities for trainees and increased variety of abnormalities and pathology.

The ScanTrainer mobile cart for the TV simulator system features two touchscreen displays, single power cable connectivity and is height adjustable for ergonomic ultrasound training.
University of Hertfordshire achieves 100% transvaginal pass rate with ScanTrainer
The University of Hertfordshire needed an advanced simulation solution to counter the lack of clinical practice opportunities for its ultrasound students. Since implementing a ScanTrainer Transvaginal Simulator (TVS), student confidence levels are at an all-time high …
