Flow Viewer advanced visualization

View 3D-like renderings of blood flow images

Flow Viewer defines vasculature with a 3D-like appearance and reduced flash artifact, using the velocity and power of the Doppler signal to accurately represent vascular flow topography. It enables sharper delineation of vascular flow margins as compared to traditional color mode in 100% of cases2. Flow Viewer is available in all flow imaging modes: color Doppler, color power angiography (CPA), directional power color angiography (dCPA,) MicroFlow Imaging (MFI) and MicroFlow Imaging-HD (MFI-HD). You can select from four levels and apply Flow Viewer real-time or during post-processing.
Enhance blood flow for a variety of applications
Flow Viewer delivers advantages in many clinical applications by enhancing the ability to resolve adjacent vessels that have the same flow direction, containing color within the vessel lumen, enhancing visualization of complex hemodynamic patterns, and increasing conspicuity of small vascular structures. Flow Viewer is available in all flow imaging modes: Color Doppler, CPA, dCPA, MFI and MFI-HD.

Flow Viewer helps visualize fetal vessels and heart structures
Flow Viewer enables more definitive fetal cardiac chamber and outflow tract identification in the second trimester as compared to traditional color flow in 100% of cases.1 It also provides more definitive ductus venosus identification in the second trimester as compared to traditional color flow in 100% of cases, and 1 more definitive umbilical cord three-vessel identification as compared to traditional color flow in 100% of cases.1

Versatility
Flow Viewer provides 3D-like visualization of 2D blood flow images in all flow imaging modes: Color Doppler, CPA, dCPA, MFI, MFI-HD. Choose from four levels (low, medium, high and max) to apply Flow Viewer while imaging or during post-processing.
