UWN+ Contrast Imaging™ (Ultra-Wideband Non-linear Contrast Imaging) & LVO
UWN+ Contrast Imaging™ combines Ultra-Wideband technology with non-linear features to achieve detailed contrast-enhanced studies. When paired with LVO (Left Ventricle Opacification Contrast) imaging, it delivers superior visualization of cardiac chambers and myocardial perfusion.
Benefits:
- High sensitivity to microbubble detection for superior contrast imaging
- Improved evaluation of myocardial perfusion and cardiac function
Natural Touch Elastography
Natural Touch Elastography is designed for tissue stiffness evaluations. By providing quantifiable data on tissue elasticity, it aids in detecting non-palpable lesions, particularly in breast, thyroid, or liver imaging.
Benefits:
- Non-invasive assessment for early detection of abnormalities
- Enhanced cancer diagnostics
Stress Echo
The Stress Echo upgrade enables cardiac function evaluation under stress, either pharmacologically or via exercise. This upgrade requires ECG integration, making it a vital tool for diagnosing ischemic heart disease.
Benefits:
- Real-time assessment of cardiac response under stress
- Critical for detecting coronary artery disease
Tissue Tracking with Quantitative Analysis (Strain/Strain Rate)
This advanced feature measures myocardial deformation, offering quantitative analysis for strain and strain rate imaging. It plays a pivotal role in diagnosing early myocardial dysfunction.
Benefits:
- Facilitates early-stage detection of subtle cardiac abnormalities
- Quantifiable metrics improve monitoring and treatment strategies
Smart 3D (Freehand 3D)
The Smart 3D upgrade provides freehand three-dimensional imaging for reconstructing anatomical structures. This feature is highly beneficial for improving spatial diagnostic accuracy.
Benefits:
- Simplifies freehand acquisition of 3D images
- Greater diagnostic insight across applications
Smart Series Solutions
The Smart series includes a variety of automation tools tailored for specific clinical applications:
- Smart OB: Automates measurements for fetal biometry, including BPD, FL, HC, AC, and OFD.
- Smart NT: Calculates nuchal translucency measurements automatically, aiding in prenatal screening for chromosomal abnormalities.
- Smart FHR OB1: Automates fetal heart rate measurements for instant, reliable results.
- Smart Bladder: Simplifies bladder volume assessments with automatic calculations.
Benefits:
