Welcome to WebTCD!

WebTCD is a Healthcare IT company founded by a group of professionals with vast experience in data management and vascular hemodynamics. Our products address important unmet needs in the transcranial Doppler (TCD) market.

Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) is a "neurotechnology." TCD is a diagnostic tool that can be used at bedside to assess the cerebral vasculature noninvasively. It is inexpensive, safe, and reliable when compared with other techniques. It can be repeated multiple times and can be used for continuous monitoring if needed.* There are multiple insurance reimbursement codes, all of which make the exam profitable to perform. A number of established uses for TCD are practiced globally (see the American Academy of Neurology guidelines,) and many more novel uses are proposed, all of which are being actively researched. Much attention is being paid to TCD as a diagnostic method for assessing closed head injury (concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), etc.) in athletics at all levels and with the multiple ongoing military conflicts. The economics of owning, applying and maintaining a TCD device for any neuro intensive care unit (NICU) are favorable, and inject positive cash flow into the budgets of centers that use the device.

Our lead product, TCD Manager™, is a clinical and research software platform designed for digital data management in transcranial Doppler. It is the only one of its kind. The product supports HL7 interfaces, and includes the administrative backbone to integrate seamlessly into any enterprise medical record systems for reports, results, billing information, demographic data, and orders. The platform not only increases the clinical utility and efficiency of standard TCD exams, thus saving hospitals tens of thousands of dollars annually, but also makes possible research and analytics that may result in increased diagnostic value.

We also offer research services and custom programming.

If you are visiting this site, chances are that you are a TCD professional. You could be a neurologist, a technologist, a research fellow, a patient, or a private physician whom either owns or is considering the purchase of a TCD machine. Regardless of your title or position, WebTCD is here to make your life easier.

Please visit our site often, as it will constantly change as we develop the best possible product for you, the TCD community.
