Fujifilm VisualSonics has received clearance from Health Canada for its Vevo MD ultrahigh-frequency ultrasound system.
Vevo MD is designed for clinical applications such as neonatology, dermatology, and vascular and musculoskeletal imaging, according to the firm. It operates at higher frequencies than conventional ultrasound devices, which allows for image resolution down to 30 micrometers, the company said. In addition, its transducer can operate in a range of frequencies, up to 70 MHz.
Fujifilm VisualSonics is a subsidiary of Fujifilm SonoSite.
