CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Expanding its advanced, high-performing AplioTM i-series ultrasound platform, today Canon Medical Systems USA, Inc. introduces the industry’s first 33 MHz ultra-high frequency linear iDMS transducer, providing extremely fine detail in the near field and the highest frequency on the market. The ultra-high frequency transducer uses iDMS technology and a single crystal wide band to provide superb resolution and detail in ultrasound imaging.
The new transducer extends the existing lineup of transducers currently available in the Aplio i-series ultrasound platform and is ideal for superficial subcutaneous imaging, carotid exams in pediatrics and pediatric/neonates, superficial nerves and superficial vascular evaluations such as varicose veins. The all-new 33 MHz ultra-high frequency transducer, available on the premium Aplio i800, is currently being showcased at this year’s Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) annual meeting in Chicago, November 25 – 30, 2018 (Booth #1938, South Level 3).
“The Aplio i800 is known for its excellent imaging detail and robust lineup of high-frequency transducers and we’re building on that reputation with the introduction of the all-new 33 MHz ultra-high frequency transducer,” said Dan Skyba, director, Ultrasound Business Unit, Canon Medical Systems USA, Inc. “By delivering this new transducer, we are expanding the use of ultrasound to new territories and helping customers deliver diagnostic imaging that is safe, less invasive than other modalities and offers clear images for confident diagnoses.”
