xMATRIX Transducer Technology
is changing the exam experience
xMATRIX technology allows you to see more clearly, explore more fully and resolve more thoroughly, making exams faster and easier for both clinicians and patients.
xMATRIX is our most leading-edge, versatile ultrasound transducer technology available today. It allows you to see more clearly, explore more fully and resolve more thoroughly, making exams faster and easier for both clinicians and patients. xMATRIX technology enables quick and easy volume acquisition, supports multiple interrogation capabilities, and provides views not possible with 2D imaging – and all with remarkable image quality. Confidently assess anatomy and function, easily identify abnormalities, and fully appreciate structural relationships in the 3D space.
The X6-1 xMATRIX transducer presents a new level of imaging performance for abdominal exams. With over 9,000 elements – 35 times more than today’s conventional transducers – the X6-1 provides ultra-thin slice imaging for improved textural pattern recognition and superb discrimination of micro-structures in the near, mid, and far fields. You can implement elevation compounding on the X6-1 with no frame-rate penalty for enhanced speckle reduction and contrast resolution at all depths. Use the X6-1 to obtain a full 90° x 90° volume sweep of the liver in less than 0.25 seconds.
With the press of a button, you can go from 2D to 3D, 4D, MPR, Live xPlane, and Live Volume, Live MPR, MPR, Doppler, color Doppler, and CPA modes with the X6-1 transducer. If you’re doing a conventional ultrasound technology exam and spot an anomaly or lesion you want to explore further, document or characterize, there’s no need to switch to a dedicated 3D transducer. The easy mode selection also facilitates interventional procedures.
In a study of 293 cases, users judged that volume imaging changed the diagnosis in an impressive 32 percent of cases, while in 62 percent of the cases it provided additional information that increased diagnostic confidence. *
Clinical trials have shown that Live xPlane reduces the number of orthogonal turns required for an abdominal exam from 20 to 30 to fewer than five, and reduces sonographer wrist strain by an average of 70 percent. xMATRIX imaging enables you to view this liver cyst in multiple formats for extensive interrogation.
