Ultrasis
Ultrasis
Ultrasis (pronounced: /ʌlˈtrɑːsɪs/) is a term used in the field of medicine and healthcare technology. It refers to a company that was known for developing and providing interactive healthcare services, including computer-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CCBT).
Etymology
The term "Ultrasis" is a neologism, a newly coined term that has entered into common use, but whose derivation is not entirely clear. It is believed to be a combination of the Latin word "ultra", meaning "beyond", and the Greek word "sis", meaning "state" or "condition". Thus, the term could be interpreted to mean "beyond the current state or condition", reflecting the company's mission to advance healthcare through technology.
