Premium ultrasound
must keep advancing
Healthcare organizations are continually being challenged
to provide a higher quality of care cost-effectively. Premium
ultrasound today demands improved clinical information from
each scan, faster and more consistent exams that are easier
to perform, and a higher level of confidence, even for technically
difficult patients. The goal is quick and accurate diagnosis
the first time and in less time.

Our most powerful architecture
nSIGHT Imaging far surpasses conventional ultrasound performance to reach
new levels of definition and clarity.

Incorporating a custom multi-stage precision beamformer along with massive


parallel processing, this proprietary architecture captures an enormous amount
of acoustic data from each transmit operation and performs digital beam
reconstruction along with mathematically optimized focal processing. This
creates extraordinary real-time images with exceptional frame rate, uniformity

throughput than software-based beamforming
EPIQ Elite ultrasound is uniquely designed to process acoustic data
at stunning rates. nSIGHT Imaging touches all aspects of acoustic acquisition
and image processing, allowing you to truly experience ultrasound’s evolution
to a more definitive modality. The EPIQ architecture processes the equivalent
of 10 DVDs/sec, while many software-based beamformer architectures struggle
to process the equivalent of even 2 DVDs/sec.

Simplify the difficult
The power of PureWave for exceptional imaging even
on technically difficult patients
PureWave crystal technology represents the biggest breakthrough in piezoelectric transducer
material in 40 years. The pure, uniform crystals of PureWave have virtually perfect uniformity
for greater bandwidth and twice the efficiency of conventional ceramic materials.

Conventional PZT (x800) PureWave crystal (x800)

PureWave crystal technology is 85% more efficient than conventional piezoelectric material,
resulting in exceptional clinical performance. This technology allows for improved penetration
in difficult patients with a single transducer while maintaining excellent detail resolution, superb
Doppler sensitivity and exceptional shear wave elastography performance.
