PST-50BT Sector Transducer: High-Precision Imaging for Pediatric Cardiology

The PST-50BT is a sector transducer designed to meet the high demands of cardiac examinations in pediatric patients. Incorporating the latest technological innovations in medical imaging, this transducer is an essential tool for cardiologists and pediatric specialists who require clear and detailed images to diagnose and effectively treat complex cardiac conditions in children. Thanks to its features, the PST-50BT ensures reliable performance and high-quality imaging, even for the most delicate anatomical structures.

The PST-50BT transducer operates with a central frequency of 5.0 MHz but also offers a frequency selection range from 6.0 to 3.0 MHz. This flexibility allows clinicians to adjust the frequency according to the specific needs of each patient and each procedure. Higher frequencies, such as 6.0 MHz, are ideal for high-resolution images of superficial structures, while lower frequencies, such as 3.0 MHz, provide better penetration for deeper structures while maintaining diagnostic clarity.

In addition to this standard frequency range, the PST-50BT also supports tissue harmonic imaging (THI) with THI frequency selections ranging from 6.2 to 4.4 MHz. This advanced technology further improves image quality by eliminating artifacts, increasing tissue resolution, and providing more accurate and reliable images, even in challenging imaging conditions.

Equipped with a 90° field of view, the Toshiba PST-50BT enables clinicians to capture wide and detailed images of the pediatric heart. This broad field of view is crucial for a complete visualization of cardiac structures, allowing for better evaluation of cardiac function and potential anatomical abnormalities. In pediatric examinations, where every detail matters, this ability to scan a wider angle in a single sweep is particularly beneficial for the rapid and precise diagnosis of congenital heart diseases.

The PST-50BT is fully compatible with the Toshiba Artida ultrasound system, known for its capabilities in cardiac imaging. Together, the Artida and the PST-50BT form a powerful duo that allows doctors to reliably monitor the hearts of pediatric patients, detect cardiac anomalies, and track disease progression with increased accuracy.

One of the greatest strengths of the PST-50BT is its adaptation to the specific needs of pediatric cardiac imaging. The hearts of children, especially infants and young patients, present particular challenges due to their small size, rapid movement, and potential congenital malformations. The PST-50BT is designed to meet these challenges by providing highly precise images and exceptional clarity of cardiac details.
