SHEARWAVE™ PL.U.S Elastography

The Reference in Elastography

Your ultrasound exams are about to benefit from a new kind of elastography experience:

  • High Framrate Real-time imaging1
  • Enhanced spatial resolution2
  • Increased penetration3
  • Dynamic tissue stiffness evaluation with large 2D color-coded map
  • Dual quantification with measurement tools in kPa and m/s
  • Preserved B-mode image quality & framerate
  1. Real time image processing is related with typical frame rate. Current standard for capture is typically 30 frames per second and can go up to 120 frames per second for some conventional ultrasound equipment. The UltraFast™ technology allows for the image acquisition up to 20,000 frames per second.
  2. SuperSonic® MACH™ 40 ultrasound system technical specifications: SWE™ imaging spatial resolution is 2mm for all transducers.
  3. SuperSonic® MACH™ 40 ultrasound system technical specifications: SWE™ imaging Box depth at maximum 12

Breakthrough Technology for Breast Health

It has been demonstrated, by more than 200 peer-reviewed publications using SWE™ imaging, that real-time mapping of breast lesion stiffness provides additional diagnostic information.

SWE™ imaging constitutes a complementary tool for:

  • Breast lesion diagnosis and characterization1
  • More accurate lesion size measurement2
  • Clear margin definition in the preoperative setting
  • Biopsy guidance2
  • Therapy planning and monitoring3
  • Prognostics and monitoring of breast cancer patients during and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy3
  • May also help with targeting lesions during ultrasound-guided biopsy.4

“With mammography, we fail to identify almost half the breast cancers in patients with dense breasts, so we need to use other tools to help improve the diagnosis of cancer in those women (…) There are several features that I like about ShearWave™ Elastography: it gives us additional information about lesions, it improves specificity and therefore improves confidence in our final diagnosis.”

Dr Kathy Schilling, M.D. – Boca Raton, Florida, USA

Angio PL.U.S™ Imaging

To Assess Microvasculature with Astounding Clarity

Angio PL.U.S™ imaging provides a new level of microvascular imaging through an exceptional high frame rate color sensitivity and spatial resolution while maintaining exceptional 2D imaging.

Thanks to its ability to detect microvascularization in different types of lesions, this mode could open the door to added clinical information and diagnostic perspectives, in both benign and malignant lesions, without the need of contrast agents.

TriVu™ Imaging

For an Increasing Diagnostic Confidence in Results

TriVu™ imaging mode allows you to visualize the anatomy, the tissue stiffness, and blood flow in the breast tissue concurrently, on the same image simultaneously. One acquisition: Assessment, in real-time of all 3 parameters in the same exact tissue.

TriVu™ imaging assesses in real-time:

  • Morphologic information with B-mode.
  • Stiffness information with ShearWave™ U.S elastography.
  • Microvascular flow information with Angio U.S™ imaging.
