The main advantage of the device is:

ibeam ultrasound technology - provides high-quality, detailed images at any depth. The function of translucent glass ‘’Shadow Glass” makes it possible to examine the details with high quality.

The IDMS software maintains the image clarity at any depth.

Aplio sensors are highly sensitive. They can cover both deep and surface structures, and have the ability to visualize twice as much space as conventional sensors.

The SMI function makes it possible to assess the flow of blood in the micro-blood vessels.

Dr. Dan Skyby, Director of the Ultrasound Department at Toshiba America Medical Systems, said: ''We have developed technologies that are fully focused on safety, the comfort of a patient, ease of examination, and that gives a doctor the ability to be confident in his diagnosis.''
