Intraoperative ultrasound for general surgery

Discover the benefits of intraoperative ultrasound (iUS) in general surgery. iUS enhances precision with real-time imaging, supports critical decision-making, and aids in organ-sparing procedures. Learn about its applications in tumor resection, ablation, and cholecystectomy, helping surgeons visualize complex anatomy, guide needle placements, and reduce radiation exposure for safer surgeries.

Active imaging solutions to elevate your procedures

Resection ultrasound

Active imaging supports liver and pancreas tumor resection procedures by helping you visualize complex anatomical variations and relationships to vascular structures, identify tumor location, define adequate margins of resection, and assess surgical planning.

Ablation imaging

Active imaging supports liver and pancreas ablation procedures by helping you visualize lesions and blood vessels, identify healthy tissue vs. tumor, and guide and view needle placements.

Cholecystectomy ultrasound

Active imaging with real-time intraoperative ultrasound supports fast imaging of the biliary system and is non-radiating, helping you reduce radiation hazards to your patients and staff.

Minimally invasive surgery ultrasound

A complete portfolio of solutions for open, minimally invasive, or combined procedures. Fully sterilizable, specialized transducers designed for biopsies, tumor resections, needle placements, and ablations.

Enhancing general surgery with advanced techniques

Discover the impact of specialized surgeries in general surgery, focusing on colorectal and robotics-assisted procedures. These advanced techniques, supported by intraoperative ultrasound, enhance precision, reduce recovery times, and improve patient outcomes.

Colorectal surgery imaging

Advanced ultrasound imaging provides critical details for planning treatments and confirming results in colorectal surgery. With cutting-edge 3D architecture, visualize anorectal anatomy, rectal cancer, anal sphincter injuries, fistulas, abscesses, rectal polyps, and masses with exceptional clarity.

Robotics-assisted surgery

Robotics-assisted surgery with real-time intraoperative ultrasound allows surgeons to precisely locate and visualize anatomical abnormalities. Assess benign and malignant lesions, key arteries, veins, and other structures with high-resolution active imaging for enhanced surgical outcomes.

Comprehensive range of 
sterilizable, specialty transducers
