C1-6VN-D: High-performance, versatile convex probe for abdominal and obstetric applications
GE Healthcare's C1-6VN-D probe, compatible with the LOGIQ™ E9 XDclear™ 2.0 ultrasound system, is a solution for medical imaging in the fields of abdomen, obstetrics and gynaecology. It features XDclear technology, an innovation that optimises image quality through improved signal processing and acoustic architecture. This technology allows clinicians to detect the finest details while ensuring increased penetration into deep tissue.
The C1-6VN-D's wide-spectrum convex design provides extensive anatomical coverage, which is essential for abdominal and pelvic examinations. Its 110° field of view (FOV) provides panoramic visualisation, facilitating overall assessment of internal structures. The bandwidth ranging from 1 to 6 MHz offers great flexibility in terms of examination depth and resolution, ensuring consistent quality regardless of the complexity of the case.
One of the major advantages of this probe is its internal volume navigation sensor, which works without the need for external support. This feature enables precise image fusion with previous data or other imaging modalities (such as CT or MRI), which is particularly useful in interventional planning or therapeutic follow-up. Thanks to this integrated sensor, professionals benefit from reliable positioning and effective spatial tracking.
The probe is also equipped with a disposable multi-angle biopsy guide with a reusable holder. This feature supports invasive procedures by allowing for a controlled needle trajectory that can be adapted to clinical needs. This enhances safety while increasing accuracy.
The C1-6VN-D stands out for its versatility, ergonomics and built-in technologies. It meets practitioners' diagnostic imaging requirements while optimising patient comfort. Whether in routine clinical practice or in complex cases, this probe is an indispensable instrument in the modern ultrasound toolkit.
