Philips X5-1c Compact: A Revolution in Cardiac Imaging
The Philips X5-1c Compact ultrasound probe is a state-of-the-art solution for transthoracic cardiovascular imaging. Equipped with nSIGHT Plus and xMatrix technologies, it provides ultra-high-performance image formation in 2D and 3D, minimizing artifacts and optimizing the clarity of anatomical structures. Designed to meet the needs of cardiologists, this probe ensures fast exams and detailed visualization of cardiac cavities, including complex structures such as valves and the left ventricular apex.
By integrating nSIGHT Plus, the X5-1c Compact optimizes real-time acoustic signal processing, reducing interference and improving image sharpness from the first acquisition. Combined with xMatrix technology, it allows seamless switching between multiple imaging modes (2D, color Doppler, 3D/4D) without compromising image quality.
One of the key advantages of the Philips X5-1c Compact is its integration with AI-powered automation tools:
- Auto Measure: Fully automated Doppler and 2D distance measurements, reducing exam time by over 50%.
- Dynamic HeartModel: Fast and reproducible quantification of left ventricle (LV) and left atrium (LA) volumes and ejection fraction.
- 3D Auto RV: Instant right ventricle function assessment using AI.
- AutoStrain LV, LA, and RV: Rapid global longitudinal strain (GLS) assessment for efficient monitoring of cardiac pathologies.
The innovative X5-1c Compact design, featuring a curved nose, facilitates access to echo windows, even in challenging patients. This ergonomic advantage reduces the time needed to capture high-quality images while improving operator comfort.
Compatible with Philips EPIQ and Affiniti ultrasound systems, the X5-1c Compact integrates seamlessly into clinical workflows. It is optimized for use with Philips IntelliSpace Cardiovascular and TOMTEC Arena, which enable multimodal management of ultrasound images and data.
With its advanced 3D imaging capabilities, the X5-1c Compact is a valuable asset for interventional procedures. Combined with Cardiac TrueVue, it provides photorealistic rendering of cardiac structures, aiding in planning and guiding interventions, including the implantation of cardiovascular devices.
