Other new features include automated analysis and measurement tools such as ejection fraction calculation with global longitudinal strain, myocardial performance index (MPI), and 3D wall motion tracking to identify early stages of cardiac disease and quantify cardiac function with improved detail. The new 4D features help expand cardiovascular ultrasound imaging capabilities on Aplio i900, while streamlining the learning curve for new users, Canon said.
The new features have received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance.
