AI Assist leverages Live View Recognition and AI-Enabled Placement to autonomously perform AI-enabled placement of color Doppler ROI and spectral Doppler gates in real-time. By analyzing the ultrasound image and recognizing the specific cardiac views among the 12 standard transthoracic ultrasound views, it accurately places the Doppler regions of interest on the appropriate anatomical and hemodynamic targets.

• Color box placement 98%¹ accurate (no or minor adjustment)
• PW Gate Placement 95%² accurate (no or minor adjustment)

Auto Doppler reduces repetitive keystrokes by automatically steering the color box, auto placement of PW sample gate with angle corrections and auto adjustment of PRF for color Doppler velocities.

All the parameters including pulsed wave Doppler scale can be adjusted on a frozen sweep in post processing. Upon freezing the Auto Spectral feature automatically fine-tunes gain, baseline, scale, and wall filter settings without requiring any manual intervention from the operator. 

InFocus Imaging eliminates the need for a traditional focal zone, producing fully focused images at faster rates than conventional systems. The entire image remains consistently sharp across the depth range, thanks to advanced technology using overlapping multibeam groups for precise information capture. 

The UltraArt feature gives you ultrasound the way you want it with real-time quad display for your imaging preferences at the touch of a button.

Real-time, adaptive, pixel-by-pixel analysis which provides exceptional contrast resolution for clear delineation of vessels. It reduces noise and artifacts, improves visualization of micro and macro - vasculature, and increases contrast resolution within tissue and between tissues.

Effortless utilization of AI technology to swiftly conduct comprehensive assessments of the mitral, aortic, tricuspid, and pulmonary veins using both pulsed and continuous wave Doppler with a simple click of the "AI" button.

• For 12 standard Echocardiogram views, AI Assist has a 99%* accuracy rate for proper view classification and Doppler placement on 23 anatomical and hemodynamic targets.

MPR Lines (Multi-Planar Reconstruction Lines) is a unique feature with advanced capabilities. These MPR Lines utilize laser lines that intersect over the 3D image, facilitating convenient alignment of anatomical structures or devices. Users can quickly identify and set matching MPR cut planes, enhancing accuracy in imaging and diagnostic procedures. This feature streamlines aligning and navigating different planes within the 3D image, providing an apparent visual reference for better anatomical analysis and precise localization of structures or medical devices during examinations.
