SuperSonic Imagine introduces UltraFast Doppler technology
SuperSonic Imagine, the ultrasound company that pioneered breakthrough ShearWave™ Elastography technology, today announced another major breakthrough in ultrasound imaging: UltraFast™ Doppler. The company, based in Aix-en-Provence, France, unveiled this revolutionary technology at the World Federation for Ultrasoundin Medicine and Biology, Euroson and Ultraschall Meeting.
Color Flow Imaging and Pulsed Wave Doppler are well-established ultrasound tools that analyze blood flow and are critical to cardiovascular disease assessment and cancer diagnosis.
On Aixplorer's fully patented UltraFast imaging platform, UltraFast Doppler unites Color Flow Imaging with Pulsed Wave Doppler. The result is never-seen-before ultra-high frame rate Color Flow clips that are up to ten times faster than conventional Color Doppler. Remarkably, the same technology also acquires fully quantifiable Doppler data throughout the Color box, enabling the generation of post-processed Pulsed Wave Doppler spectra from multiple locations in the same image.
These new advances in Doppler technology introduce a new era of flow imaging, workflow efficiency and diagnostic confidence.
Peter Burns, Professor of Medical Biophysics at the University of Toronto and Senior Scientist at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, Toronto commented, "This technology promises to overcome two challenges faced by vascular sonographers every day when they use conventional duplex scanners. First, conventional color frame rates are too low to show real arterial hemodynamics, with pathology often masked by aliasing artifacts and second, the pulsed Doppler examination is a separate and time consuming process of searching for the optimal signal. UltraFast Doppler provides high frame rates, less aliasing and the ability to show spectra at every point in a stored color loop. It provides more accurate flow imaging and will enable more effective workflow in the vascular lab."
