Sonosite L38xi Transducer: Performance and Versatility in Medical Imaging
The Sonosite L38xi transducer is a linear probe specifically designed to meet the diverse imaging needs of healthcare professionals. Its technical design allows for detailed visualization of anatomical structures, facilitating diagnosis and treatment across various medical specialties.
With an imaging depth of 9 cm, the L38xi is ideal for examining superficial and moderately deep structures. Its bandwidth of 10 to 5 MHz ensures optimal resolution, capturing clear and precise images. This frequency range is particularly suited for applications such as pulmonary imaging, where detailed tissue visualization is crucial for accurate assessment.
The clinical applications of the L38xi are extensive. In pulmonary imaging, it enables the detection of abnormalities such as pleural effusions or pulmonary consolidations. In neurology, it facilitates the visualization of peripheral nerves, aiding in guiding interventions and diagnosing neuropathies. For vascular applications, the L38xi provides detailed imaging of blood vessels, essential for evaluating arterial and venous pathologies.
The compatibility of the L38xi with Sonosite Edge, Edge II, and M-Turbo ultrasound systems ensures seamless integration into existing clinical environments. These systems are renowned for their durability and reliability, ensuring that the transducer operates optimally under various conditions. This broad compatibility offers healthcare professionals the flexibility to use the L38xi in different clinical contexts, maximizing its utility and efficiency.
A notable feature of the L38xi is its compatibility with the CIVCO Infiniti Plus in-plane needle guide. This feature is particularly beneficial for procedures requiring precise needle placement, such as biopsies or targeted injections. The use of the needle guide enhances the safety and effectiveness of interventions by ensuring accurate needle placement under ultrasound guidance.
In terms of technical characteristics, the L38xi stands out for its ergonomic design, facilitating easy handling during examinations. Its robust construction ensures longevity, even in demanding clinical environments. The superior quality of materials used in its manufacture guarantees consistent and reliable performance, essential for precise diagnostics.
Available accessories for the L38xi include, in addition to the CIVCO Infiniti Plus needle guide, mounting and protection options to ensure the safety and durability of the transducer. These accessories are designed to optimize the use of the L38xi, providing solutions tailored to the specific needs of practitioners. The integration of these accessories into daily clinical practice contributes to improving the efficiency of procedures and the quality of care provided to patients.
