THREE PROBE OPTIONS, ONE POWERFUL PLATFORM
Maximize your technology investment by configuring the Scanmate Flex to meet your needs
The Scanmate Flex, a portable, ophthalmic ultrasound platform, is the perfect product to enhance your practice’s diagnostic capabilities. The Flex provides any desired combination of A-Scan, B-Scan, and UBM. Its hallmark is flexibility.
A-Scan
The Flex A-Scan uses DGH’s proven alignment algorithm to obtain repeatable and accurate axial length measurements. The IOL calculator is easy to use and includes most modern and post refractive formulas.
B-Scan
The redesigned B-Scan Probe, new with the Flex, provides clear imaging of the posterior segment of the eye, even when optical clarity is compromised.
UBM
The Flex UBM probe is indispensable when obtaining high resolution images of the anterior segment of the eye, including images of structures concealed by the iris or corneal opacities.
TOTAL IMAGING SOLUTION

The Scanmate Flex B-Scan probe enables clinicians to capture clear and precise images and videos of the posterior segment of the eye. Ultrasonic B-scans are effective, even when opacities (such as dense cataract, blood, or anatomical structures) are present which obscure optical technologies.
The B-Scan probe is available in both 12.5 MHz and 20 MHz frequencies. Among the on-screen tools are calipers to measure structures, an area measurement tool and an annotation tool that gives you a way to indicate pathologies on the image.
B-Scan Diagnostic Applications
The Flex B-Scan delivers clear images of the posterior portion, even when optical clarity is compromised. B-Scan imaging can aid the evaluation of:
- Retinal Detachments
- Vitreous Detachments
- Vitreous Humor Pathologies
- Staphylomas
- Posterior Segment Pathologies
- Choroidal Pathologies
- Optic Nerve Pathologies
- Scleral Thickening





A unique grading algorithm automatically ranks the probe’s alignment along the axis of measurement. Alignment ranking is immediate, with each qualified measurement assigned a 1-star, 2-star or 3-star rank (3-star representing best alignment). Aided by the audible feedback, the user can adjust the probe’s contact angle during a procedure, correcting misalignments and thereby optimizing measurement.
Unique compression lockout feature for use during contact measurements. When enabled, compression lockout will stop the system from measuring waveforms which show indications of corneal compression. Audible tones are provided to guide the user in adjusting contact pressure and aid in alleviating flattening of the cornea. The compression sensitivity level is adjustable to aid in obtaining contact measurements with minimum compression.
The Flex A-Scan can operate in either contact or immersion mode. Immersion mode eliminates corneal compression by allowing measurements in a water bath. The probe releases ultrasonic pulses into water (rather than directly to the eye). The pulses propagate through the water and into the tissue. This method of measurement eliminates potential deformation of the cornea’s geometry caused by direct contact from a probe.
The Scanmate software performs IOL calculations using modern predictive models, allowing the clinician to explore various treatment plans simultaneously.
