Two key additions to the new site are short animated videos for each brand to quickly demonstrate products; and interactive modules that let site visitors quickly and easily explore product benefits and features.

A "Model Comparison" tool has been added, as well as expanded sections for Clinical Literature, Model News, Model Components and Model Specifications.  Current equipment users can quickly locate the most up-to-date manuals, quick reference cards and video tutorials on the site in the respective Product Materials sections.  And visitors from the Military now have relevant details available to them under the Military Medicine section.

"We believe the new Verathon Web site will quickly give healthcare providers what they need and want for their information searches," stated Gerald McMorrow, CEO and Founder of Verathon.  "Our team listened carefully to Anesthesiologists, Urologists, Nurses, Internists, BioMedical Technicians and Emergency Medicine physicians to ensure we were providing the information they needed, the way they needed it.  This site delivers on that in an innovative way not seen anywhere else in the medical device business."
