What is Clarius Ultrasound?

Clarius Ultrasound is a compact, wireless device that provides real-time, high-definition imaging of the breasts and underlying implants. Unlike traditional MRI or X-ray imaging, Clarius allows Dr. Kreithen and his team to detect implant issues on-site, in minutes, with no downtime or discomfort for the patient.

This revolutionary tool has changed the way we monitor for implant rupture, leaks, fluid accumulation, or asymmetry—especially for women with silicone implants.

Why Tampa Patients Love Clarius Ultrasound

Clarius offers a safe, simple way to check your breast implants, especially if you’ve had:

Silicone gel breast implants
Implants placed 10+ years ago
Concerns about rupture or hardening
Symptoms like asymmetry or discomfort

Benefits of Clarius Ultrasound for Breast Implants

No radiation – safe, non-invasive, and repeatable
Real-time imaging – results available immediately
Fast evaluations – most scans completed in under 10 minutes
Cost-effective – no expensive MRI or hospital imaging fees
Ideal for routine monitoring – especially for long-term silicone implant patients

Who Should Get a Breast Implant Ultrasound?

Clarius ultrasound may be ideal for you if:

You’ve had silicone breast implants for more than 5 to 10 years
You’re experiencing discomfort, tightness, or asymmetry
You want peace of mind without scheduling an MRI
You’ve had implant revision or capsular contracture in the past
You are considering breast implant removal or replacement

What Can Clarius Detect?

Using high-resolution imaging, Clarius allows Dr. Kreithen to:

Evaluate implant shell integrity (rupture or leakage)
Assess for capsular contracture or thickened scar tissue
Identify seromas (fluid collections) or hematomas
Visualize implant positioning or shifting
Confirm implant type and placement

This is especially valuable for women with older implants, those with minimal natural breast tissue, or those monitoring for long-term changes after augmentation or revision.
