Contrast Imaging techniques

Aplio and Xario series offer a comprehensive contrast imaging package, covering all main applications and introducing pioneering techniques that push the boundaries of contrast imaging applications.

Micro Flow Imaging
Micro Flow Imaging is Toshiba's latest advancement in Contrast Imaging. It allows tracing of individual microbubbles over time to deliver contrast harmonic images of unprecedented resolution and detail definition. This outstanding technique is especially useful in the assessment of slowly perfused organs like mammary, small parts and the microvasculature of abdominal organs. The Replenishing function in addition allows the user to remove residual microbubbles from the region of interest to obtain the best sensitivity and specificity.

 

Contrast Tissue Discriminator
Contrast Tissue Discriminator is Toshiba's low MI pulse subtraction method using alternating phases. The resulting echoes are combined in such as way as to cancel the echoes from tissue while highlighting those from the microbubbles.

It gives high resolution gray-scale images that show contrast agent flowing through the macro and micro circulation in real-time and allows continuous imaging of the contrast agent for several minutes.


Vascular Recognition Imaging
Vascular Recognition Imaging (VRI) is Toshiba's latest and most advanced contrast imaging technique.

Using ultra-low acoustic power, it visualizes vascularization and perfusion of ultrasonic contrast agents at the same time. And Toshiba's unique Tri-Color-mode simultaneously displays and distinguishes contrast agent wash-in/wash-out and perfusion of micro bubbles in away that is easy to understand.

 

An extensive contrast package is available on Aplio and Xario series.
