美国Viasys公司推出用于血管成像的Telocin超声系统

Telocin超声诊断系统是一种新型超声系统，可以用于外周血管、神经血管以及进行外科手术时的成像。这个系统是由位于美国宾夕法尼亚州肯肖霍肯市(Conshohocken, PA, USA)的Viasys健康保健公司研发成功的。该系统体积紧凑，具有几种不同的传感器可供选择，可以用来检测脑卒中的危险生理因素。

除此之外，该系统还能用来检测和诊断其它危及生命的高风险血管疾病，例如深静脉血栓、腹部动脉瘤。现在可以迅速而方便地联合检测上下肢血压比（the ankle brachial index, ABI)和进行颈动脉超声扫描，从而可以及时进行干预以增加预防脑卒中发作的可能性。该系统可作为普通超声检测项目，或者作为庞大的手术室或者血管实验室附属项目。

Ultrasound System for Vascular Imaging

A new ultrasound system provides imaging for peripheral vascular, neurovascular, and intraoperative applications. The Telocin diagnostic ultrasound system, developed by Viasys Healthcare, Inc. (Conshohocken, PA, USA), is compact in size, provides a number of transducer options, and allows for the evaluation of treatable major physiologic risk factors for stroke.

In addition, the system provides detection and diagnosis of other life-threatening high-risk vascular conditions including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). A combination of the ankle brachial index (ABI) and carotid ultrasound scanning can now be rapidly and easily performed, allowing timely intervention to enhance the potential for stroke prevention. The system is suitable for the office practice or as an additional unit in a busy or expanding operating room or vascular lab.
