Urology solution

Advanced imaging, precise navigation

Canon ultrasound systems offer precise imaging with high resolution and detail, combined with fast and accurate image-guided interventional solutions for a wide range of genitourinary examinations. A host of advanced tools, such as elastography or contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), can help you further increase clinical confidence in the detection and characterization of pathological findings.

Consistently high image quality for all your needs

Canon ultrasound systems allow you to perform exams with consistently high quality across all patients. Advanced transducer and beamforming technologies enables imaging with high penetration combined with high spatial and contrast resolution.

Fast and accurate image-guided intervention

For both, transrectal and transperineal MR fusion-guided biopsies, Canon offers a user-friendly, fully integrated onboard solution that can work with both sterilizable and disposable adapters, delivering exceptional image quality, ease of use and workflow efficiency.

Optimal comfort and workflow efficiency

Canon ultrasound systems are Healthy Sonographer platforms with adaptive ergonomics that allow you to customize a system to your preferences, the exam and the patient to improve the comfort and efficiency of your exam while enhancing the patient experience.

Urogenital imaging and intervention

Optimal results for every clinical need

Ultrasound imaging has become an established standard in modern urological practice and is an integral part of prostate imaging and diagnostics. Aplio offers precise assessment with high resolution and detail, combined with fast and accurate image-guided interventional solutions for the full spectrum of urogenital examinations.

Optimal results for every clinical need

Clinical images

With its uncompromising image quality, Aplio has the ability to provide the foundation for effective diagnoses, as well as rapid and targeted biopsies.

Aplio’s fully integrated onboard solution with automatic co-registration of MR data can help you to perform the biopsy procedure efficiently and appropriately.

Smart 3D is an efficient option to add volume-imaging capability to the system’s convex and linear transducers, supporting all modes including MR Smart Fusion imaging.

Transperineal MR guided fusion biopsy

An all-in-one solution with high workflow efficiency

Canon ultrasound systems enable transperineal MR fusion biopsy with high workflow efficiency. With high image quality and automated prostate segmentation, you can take advantage of precise local anesthesia, accurate targeting, and integrated reporting including 3D biopsy core mapping directly on the ultrasound system.

Clinical images

Aplio’s easy-to-use Smart Fusion package provides fast loading and volume registration including regions of interest previously defined on the MRI data – directly on the ultrasound system.

In addition to fast and accurate biopsy, Canon’s outstanding image quality and intuitive hands-free approach also allows for patient-friendly, targeted local anesthesia, which can contribute to the accuracy of the procedure.

To complete a biopsy session, Aplio allows you to document the entire course of examination on the system, including an easy-to-understand 3D core biopsy mapping of the prostate.

Comprehensive imaging capability for deeper clinical insights

Canon ultrasound systems are designed as powerful multi-purpose platforms that can perform well beyond your routine tasks with consistently high image quality and efficiency. Advanced solutions can help further increase your diagnostic confidence in detecting and characterizing pathological findings.

Clinical images

Advanced solutions such as the comprehensive Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) toolkit can help further increase diagnostic confidence in the detection and quantification of pathological findings.

High-resolution flow mapping with Superb Micro-vascular Imaging (SMI) can help achieve optimal results for the detection and characterization, particularly in small organs.

Canon’s comprehensive Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS) package for a wide range of exams can provide detailed insights into perfusion dynamics with high imaging precision and uniformity.

Ergonomics

Make your work flow with ergonomics that excel

Canon ultrasound systems are designed to make your imaging task simple and quick while allowing you to scan in a comfortable, patient-engaging position. The systems provide a host of intelligent workflow support and automation tools, helping you to achieve rapid results with consistent high quality regardless of the patient’s condition.
