The Importance of Phillips Transducer Technology<\/h1>\n

Philips\u2019 PureWave technology is its imaging solution for difficult to scan patients. PureWave is an innovation that utilizes piezo crystals that are better than show significant improvement in electromechanical coupling and strain levels compared the previous innovations. Why does this matter to you? You can now use one ultrasound probe that covers the frequency that used to require two transducers with traditional crystals! Reduced your stress about how you will scan difficult to scan patients, how long it will take, and if you will capture a clear enough picture by using Philips PureWave technology.<\/p>\n

How PureWave Works<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Philips PureWave technology was developed to increase frequency coverage and bandwidth. Therefore, increasing penetration and resolution. This is accomplished using crystals that are manufactured to create a near-perfect atomic level arrangement. An additional benefit to Philips\u2019 PureWave innovation is that energy is transferred with up to 85% greater precision and efficiency due to the uniformity and lack of grain boundaries that aren\u2019t found in conventional crystal alignments.<\/p>\n

A PureWave ultrasound probe from Philips can cover the frequency range of two transducers. Its tissue aberration correction technology allows speed of sound characteristics not be affected as strongly when scanning patients with significant adipose layers. In the PureWave mode, the ultrasound systems become aware of increased adipose content and applies aberration correction algorithms. This reduces image degradation, resulting in increased sharpness and clarity throughout the entire beam length.<\/p>\n

Why does it matter for you? Fewer probes, faster scans, clearer images. Period.<\/p>\n
