Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS)
A universal platform for contrast-enhanced ultrasound
Ultrasound contrast agents can transform the role of ultrasound, allowing clinicians to study the enhancement patterns of liver lesions in real time, providing faster and more definitive diagnoses. Let us help you develop or refine your CEUS program.
Demonstrated results in Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS)
Overview
Our contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is seamlessly integrated into the standard workflow, providing exceptional detail throughout arterial, portal and late phase scanning. Advanced technology such as CEUS Auto Scan, high frame rate imaging, maximum field of view, MaxVue high-definition display, the C5-1, mC12-3 and C9-2 PureWave transducers, fusion imaging and integrated quantification via Philips Q-Apps support confidence even in the most challenging exams.
Image quality, advanced insights, workflow and support
- Image quality: Achieve outstanding resolution and deep penetration to successfully image the region of interest. Optimize the display of dual, side/side, biplane and scrolling imaging modes.4
- Advanced insights: Provide personalized ultrasound and elevate your CEUS capabilities.
- Workflow: Our ultrasound systems are designed for efficient workflow and ease of use, regardless of operator experience.
- Trusted partner: Tailor your support to your needs with advanced collaboration tools, clinical application education and services that help you tackle the business side of healthcare.
Advanced tools for CEUS
- Super Resolution Microvascular Imaging combines super-resolution processing and advanced motion compensation. When combined with temporal information from the Time of Arrival map, it helps users determine not only the pattern of blood flow to a lesion, but also the pattern of flow over time.
- Fusion imaging with Auto Registration allows you to fuse CT/MR/PET/CBCT images with live ultrasound in under one minute.2
- CEUS Auto Scan automatically optimizes gain and time gain compensation (TGC) to continuously provide an optimal image without requiring manual adjustment of TGCs throughout the exam.

When selecting Philips as a partner, I was taken by the high quality of grayscale and the range of transducers. But [Philips] honesty and openness in terms of showing me what I can expect from ultrasound in the future were very impressive too.
