Refine and Redefine Intervention Using High-Definition (Hi-Def) Technology

The latest clinical data shows that the enhanced visualization on offer can result in reducing both procedure time and the overall exposure dose required. It really is the best of both worlds: additional Hi-Def modes with consistent low dose performance.

Initial experience using a novel high definition (Hi-Def) imaging system in peripheral arterial interventions

A newly developed high definition (Hi-Def) detector allows imaging with a resolution of 76 microns – more than twice that of standard technologies. This unique system consists of a conventional flat-panel detector (FPD) with embedded high-resolution modes, and is the first technology of its kind to help guide peripheral interventions.

“Our initial experience using a novel Hi-Def imaging system shows that it can effectively be used in real-time to improve visualization of lower extremity vasculature and interventional devices during complex peripheral arterial interventions and may be used to improve technical outcomes.”
