The AU5 EPI is an ultrasound system for multi-disciplinary use that incorporates all the transducer technologies (linear, convex, phased array, and annular array) adapted to today’s most diverse diagnostic requirements. Furthermore it offers the most modern and advanced techniques available today on the market.

With Esaote software it is possible to benefit from the standard link channel (local network, Internet, Intranet) to send images and related reports simply and cost-effectively. The images are exchanged with DICOM® 3 standard protocol and it is possible to archive and retrieve in all the standard formats available on the market, from hard disk to optical disk. It is also possible to print CFM images with standard computer printers with cost savings.

VHFS (Very High Frequency Sonography) is the new diagnostic opportunity provided by AU5 EPI. The VHFS offers both enhanced visualization and, using the system’s bidimensional and color Doppler capabilities, identification of anatomical structures and pathologies previously undetectable by traditional sonography.

The Very High Doppler Frequencies noticeably improve the sensivity to slow flow conditions that constitute the principal vascular components of superficial tissues.

The Power Doppler and the 180° TEE multiplane probe, together with the endocavity probes, make the AU5 EPI a truly multidisciplinary system, with applications in vascular, obstetrics and gynecology, cardiology, neonatology and more.

With the intraoperative and interventional probes, OmniProbe IOE13A and Laparoscopic LP13A, Esaote offers completely new solutions for ultrasound diagnosis in operating and angiographic theaters and during therapeutic applications. The IOE13A probe with its multiple configuration and handle attachments (Esaote patented) offers the surgeon maximum flexibility and access to any vessel or organ. The probe body shaft has four facets for handle and finger attachement. The position can be changed on shaft to offer four different profiles. LP13A is a new laparoscopic probe with multiple tip movement.
