Functions supporting cardiac echo measurements have rich contents.
The M-mode Navigation that designates the endocardium auto-trace function for the Simpson method, and automatically designates the next point for the left ventricle M-mode measurement, increases the efficiency of measurements. In addition, the ODM (Omni-Direction M-mode) that can acquire M-mode images at any angle.
This is a tool to quantify the movement of myocardial tissues. Especially the TDI-PW offers proven clear images.
“The function of M-mode that can acquire at any angle” developed by Hitachi. This solves a problem easily in which beam line is not entered in right angle. Also it has a function to display two directions of M-mode simultaneously.
This is a function to navigate the measurement points in the M-mode. Since boundary recognition software reads the variation of brightness and navigates to the measurement points allowing examination time to be shortened.
The max. and mean IMT are automatically calculated as well in addition to the 3-point measurement recommended by Society for the study of Early Arteriosclerosis, Japan, it can be fully utilized as an accurate index of arteriosclerosis.
A real-time 3D image can be reconstructed by simple operations. The dedicated 4D probes are probe is light-weighted and ergonomic design reduce the fatigue of examinations even in long examinations.
The real-time bi-plane function Hitachi's advanced allows the observation of transverse and sagittal planes at the same time, and it is useful also for the accurate biopsy of the prostate. In addition, the grid display function used for brachy therapy, for the prostate cancer by using a special applicator.
