SuperSonic Imagine, a French firm, has announced that its Aixplorer MACH 30 ultrasound has been cleared in the U.S. and Europe. The system works as a traditional high power ultrasound, but also features the company’s elastography technology called ShearWave PLUS that measures tissue elasticity, or stiffness, in 3D. Elastography is now commonly used for identifying mammary and hepatic lesions and helping to grade breast and liver cancers.
The MACH 30 offers higher power compared to its older cousins from Supersonic Imagine, making it faster and more efficient during imaging. B-mode quality has been improved within the system while new transducers help improve image quality in Angio PL.U.S and TriVu ( (all-in-one B-mode / SWE / Color+) modes.
The firm is particularly proud of a large touchpad, which it calls SonicPad, as the central controller for the MACH 30. “During clinical evaluations performed in the US, we received enthusiastic customer feedback from those who used the Aixplorer MACH 30 and its touchpad,” said Kurt Kelln, Chief Business Officer of Sales for SuperSonic Imagine, in a press release. “The SonicPad permits quick and intuitive control of all functions needed for a successful examination. It lets users improve their workflow while concentrating on the analysis of on-screen clinical information rather than which buttons to push for optimal image acquisition. The same enthusiastic reception was observed globally.”
