Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS)
Clarity and confidence for perfusion studies
Featuring outstanding image quality [1], optimized transducers and workflow enhancements, our contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) technology delivers consistent results to bring greater clarity to perfusion studies. Noise reduction and tissue cancellation algorithms deliver stunning images, and side-by-side imaging and improved touchscreen controls enhance workflow.
Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound
Thought Leadership in Ultrasound – CEUS with Dr. Louis Mazzarelli
Dr. Louis Mazzarelli shares his thoughts on the power of using contrast in an Ultrasound exam as well as barriers to overcome in adding CEUS into clinical practice.
Demonstrated results in Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS)
Achieve reliable results
- Our CEUS is integrated into the standard workflow.
- CEUS provides exceptional detail throughout arterial, portal and late phase scanning. [5]
- CEUS tissue cancellation algorithm enhances contrast visualization.
- Advanced technology such as parametric maps, CEUS Auto Scan, high frame rate imaging, maximum field of view, MaxVue high-definition display, advanced transducers, fusion imaging and integrated quantification via Philips Q-Apps support confidence even in the most challenging exams.
Image quality, advanced insights, workflow and support
- Achieve outstanding resolution [5] and deep penetration to successfully image the region of interest. Optimize the display of dual, side-by-side, biplane and scrolling imaging modes [6]
- Perform quantitative analysis for measurable insights.
- Improve diagnostic confidence through advanced visualization of vascular structures and lesion perfusion patterns.
- Supports efficient workflows with streamlined processing and automation assistance.
Advanced tools for CEUS
- SuperRes MVI Pro aids evaluation of subtle microvascular patterns. It creates Time-of-Arrival and Time-to-Peak maps that support confident lesion characterization and provides quantification for measurable insights.
- CEUS Auto Scan automatically optimizes gain and time gain compensation (TGC) to continuously provide an optimal image without requiring manual adjustment of TGCs.
- Improved tissue cancellation in the C5-1, eL18-4, L12-3 ERGO and C10-3v (Low and Mid MI) reduces background interference to deliver stunning images. [1]
- Flash power matches the power level used in standard 2D imaging.
