Contribute to Next-Gen Diagnostic Imaging and Earn $1,500 in Cash
iThera Medical is looking for 15 sonographers in the greater Boston area to be involved in a usability study for an optoacoustic medical imaging system.
Space is limited!
About Optoacoustic imaging:
- The MSOT Acuity Echo by iThera uses short laser pulses to excite light-absorbing tissue molecules which then emit ultrasound signals.
- These ultrasound signals are collected by an ultrasound detector and processed to create a map of optical absorbance at a given wavelength.
By changing the laser wavelength, a spectroscopic analysis of the tissue composition can be performed, providing information about progression of various diseases.
- The unique capability of this imaging technique is to combine optical contrast with the depth and resolution of ultrasound imaging.
Get involved!
Why participate?
- You will be reimbursed $1,500 for your time.
- Be among the first to receive hands-on training on a next-generation imaging device.
- Receive an official training with certificate for the next-generation imaging device.
- If you refer a colleague that participates in the study you will be reimbursed $200 (in case there is more than one referrer for a participant, only the first referrer will receive the reimbursement).
Who can participate?
- You are able to commit to 1 day of training and study participation.
- You have a 2-year degree or higher in ultrasound imaging or sonography.
When and where will the study be?
- The study site is in North Reading, MA, about 20 minutes away from downtown Boston.
- The study will begin mid-June 2023 and will last about three weeks.
- Each participant will be scheduled to be on-site for one day including 2 hours of training in the morning and 2 hours of study participation in the afternoon with a long break during lunch.
The schedule is subject to change.
Travel costs will be reimbursed. Additional details will be provided after participants have been screened.
INFO: Not everyone who fills out this form will be able to participate in the study as the number of spots is limited and participants may undergo additional screening. Only those who participate to the end of their scheduled study day will be reimbursed. However, if you are the first to refer a colleague who participates in the study, you will be reimbursed whether you are able to participate or not. Sign up now to get a chance to be a part of the future of medical imaging!
