Ultrasound Gel & Coupling Agents

Where to buy ultrasound gel

For over 30 years, our comprehensive collection of gels has enhanced patient care and made us the go-to for purchasing high-quality ultrasound gel products. We offer ultrasound gels for a variety of ultrasound exams and procedures, from exams for expectant mothers to peripheral intravenous procedures to endocavity scans.

Ultrasonic (or sonography) gel plays a vital role in ultrasound procedures. Our products are excellent at reducing the amount of air between the patient’s skin and the transducer, thus resulting in clear, high-quality images. We also offer ultrasound coupling gels that are suitable for all types of electromedical treatments.

Backed by our extensive experience in the medical imaging sector, our ultrasound gel products undergo a strict vetting process to ensure that our clients receive medical-grade gels suitable for their facility. All products we offer are FDA-approved and CE-marked. We pride ourselves in our partnerships with medical facilities across the United States and are committed to providing the best ultrasound supplies at competitive prices.

The benefits of ultrasound gel

As previously stated, ultrasound gel has conductive properties that create a bond between the skin and the transducer. Since the ultrasound waves have difficulties traveling through air, the gel allows for a clear image to be produced. Its high-viscosity texture is a very important feature so that it doesn’t drip off when the sonographer is performing the ultrasound.

Our high-viscosity ultrasound gel products allow practitioners to scan hard to reach places. These gels, such as Krystal and EcoVue HV, are up to 35% thicker than their standard counterparts. The increased viscosity allows for ultrasound users to obtain clearer and more accurate images during exams and procedures. This is one of the primary reasons why selecting the right ultrasound gel for your exam leads to improved patient care.

Additionally, the most common complaint from patients about ultrasound gel is how cold it is. This is why we offer ultrasound gel warmers, such as the Thermasonic gel warmer and the Acclimate gel warmer. These devices warm up the gel and maintain its temperature throughout the exam, thereby increasing patient comfort.
