New Philips Mini TEE Ultrasound Transducer Helps Improve Cardiac Care for More Patients

DAIC

Cardiovascular ultrasound has played a key role in the evolution of early diagnosis of structural heart disease, led by a technology pioneered by Philips: the ‘transesophageal echocardiography’ (TEE) ultrasound transducer. In structural heart disease, the quality of a 3D TEE image can help save lives.

What is Ultrafast Ultrasound Imaging?

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

Ultrasound techniques currently used in echocardiography uses frame rates from 30-150 frames/s. This limits its temporal resolution for very short lived events, especially in pediatric and congenital heart disease with faster heart rates compared to adults [1]. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2024 Jan 2;83(1):63-81.
