dermatologic ultrasound acoustic coupler panniculitis venous insufficiency superficial lipoma vasculature status

TLDR The document concludes that the acoustic coupler SF-001 is good for skin ultrasound, especially on rough body parts, because it's stable and shows blood vessels well.

The 2019 document discussed the use of an acoustic coupler, SF-001, in dermatologic ultrasound imaging for observing superficial or proximal dermatologic lesions. The coupler was specifically used for panniculitis due to venous insufficiency in the lower extremity and superficial lipoma in the thigh. The authors recommended the use of the acoustic coupler, particularly in rough, uneven parts in hand, foot, and joint locations, due to its stability, equipped condition, and satisfactory observation for vasculature status due to the low attenuation material.
