Foreign body identification under ultrasound is a skill that demands both probe technique and anatomical confidence, and it is rarely given enough training time.
Soft tissue foreign bodies are commonly missed on initial assessment. The consequences can include delayed treatment, infection, and unnecessary surgical exploration. For the clinicians performing these assessments, understanding how different objects look under ultrasound is key.
The BIOTME Foreign Bodies Ultrasound Simulator was designed to build confidence. Constructed from specialist echogenic material that mimics real human tissue, it contains five distinct foreign objects, a pin, bullet, pellet, metal shard, and splinter, for accurate identification and assessment practice in a safe, controlled environment.
