UST-5299: High-Precision Electronic Sector Probe for Cardiac Diagnostics
The Hitachi UST-5299 electronic sector probe is specifically designed for cardiac ultrasound diagnostics, providing exceptional performance and compatibility with several Hitachi ultrasound platforms, such as the SSD-3500, SSD-4000, ProSound 6, and F37. With advanced imaging technology and an ergonomic design, this probe meets the needs of healthcare professionals looking for high accuracy and efficiency.
Operating at a frequency range of 1 to 5 MHz, the UST-5299 captures high-resolution images that are crucial for accurate diagnostics. Its 90° field of view enhances the exploration range while maintaining high precision. Designed for surface applications, it adapts to various patient conditions and ensures consistent results. The 1.8 m cable provides excellent flexibility, allowing for easy handling during examinations, while its lightweight (900 g) construction reduces user fatigue.
The UST-5299 stands out for its simple setup and user-friendly design. Its connector securely attaches to Hitachi ultrasound systems using a locking mechanism that minimizes the risk of accidental disconnection. Additionally, it features an IPX7 rating, ensuring water resistance and facilitating thorough cleaning and disinfection processes.
The probe’s submersible parts can be manually cleaned using compatible solutions like Enzol® or Cidezyme®. For disinfection, Cidex® OPA is recommended. The probe should then be stored in a clean and dry environment to maintain its longevity and performance.
Primarily designed for cardiac ultrasound examinations, the UST-5299 is ideal for capturing detailed images of the heart and surrounding structures. Its sector technology enables the emission and reception of ultrasound waves, producing precise images even in complex clinical settings.
The Hitachi UST-5299 is a reliable and high-performing probe designed to meet the demands of modern ultrasound imaging. Its ergonomic design, high image quality, and broad compatibility make it an essential tool for any cardiac imaging practice.
