Ultrasound equipment manufacturer SuperSonic Imagine will be debuting three new quantitative liver ultrasound applications at the upcoming RSNA 2019 meeting in Chicago.
The first two tools, Att Plus and SSp Plus, are designed to simultaneously quantify ultrasound attenuation in the liver and intrahepatic speed of sound to reflect fat content for detecting and diagnosing hepatic steatosis, according to the vendor.
The third new tool, Vi Plus, works in combination with real-time elasticity imaging to visualize and quantify tissue viscosity. These viscosity assessments provide clinicians with information for tissue characterization, SuperSonic Imagine said.
