EKV, or E CG-gated K ilohertz V isualization, allows for increased temporal resolution. By averaging multiple cardiac cycles, typical B-mode frame rates are increased from ~300 frames/sec to up to 10,000 frames/sec! This simple and quick acquisition mode …

Digital RF-Mode allows users to acquire, digitize, and save the RF (radio frequency) data from the ultra-high frequency ultrasound signal. Ultrasound transducers convert electrical signals into pressure waves which are transmitted into the tissue …

Proper light delivery is crucial for obtaining optimal depth and sensitivity in photoacoustic imaging. Customize illumination for the desired depth, sensitivity and field-of-view - just as one chooses a specific frequency of ultrasound transducer for a …

Simply select the scanning distance, step size and in less than two seconds you can image the entire tumor, metastasis, blood vessel, or organ of interest. 3D Mode is not only an imaging mode, it allows for measurements of area, height, length and volume …

Using Color Doppler Mode, flow velocities within vessels are color-coded! Vessel networks and flow patterns can be laid out in a complex manner. Using Color Doppler, the intensity of the color is a function of velocity. Flow towards and away from the …

Power Doppler Mode provides a visual overview and general quantification of vasculature.  Measurement tools in Power Doppler Mode can calculate percent vascularity - an index of relative vascular density Small changes in organ vascularity can be detected …

B-Mode is a two-dimensional ultrasound image display composed of bright dots representing the ultrasound echoes. The brightness of each dot is determined by the amplitude of the returned echo signal. This allows for visualization and quantification of …

M-mode examines a line of M otion over time. Using M-mode in echocardiography displays the movement of the myocardium allowing for accurate and real-time measurements of wall thickness, internal diameter, and heart rate. It is from these parameters that …

The Photoacoustic Effect explained:   1. LIGHT EMITTED: Nanosecond pulsed laser light is emitted causing illumination of the tissue. 2. LIGHT ABSORBED: The light is absorbed by chromophores causing thermoelastic expansion. 3. SOUND EMITTED: Soundwaves are …

Nonlinear Contrast Imaging is performed by intravenously injecting either target-ready or untargeted microbubble contrast agents Non-targeted microbubbles allow you to visualize and quantify blood perfusion within an organ or tissue of interest in 2D or …
