Advanced Imaging Technology
Benefiting from MINDRAYs advanced image process technologies, DC-3 provides
brilliant color Doppler images and precise anatomic 2D imaging.
Powerful Multi-beam Parallel Imaging (MBP) increases temporal resolution and
real-time frame rate, while collecting useful information to re-build high quality
images.
Fine Tissue Optimization (FTO) eliminates noise, improves signal-to-noise ratio
and emphasizes boundary imaging.
Transmitting Spectrum Focusing (TSF) greatly decreases side lobe while
improving spatial and temporal resolution.
Innovative Transmitting Apodization (ITA) minimizes artifact through specific
apodized transmissionreducing near-field clutter and enhancing precise sound
beam for more predictable results.
Accurate Vessel Imaging (AVI) automatically distinguishes subtle tissue Doppler
signal from blood cell to form high resolution images.
