Clinical staff can also benefit from a Mini Live 3D TEE solution that allows them to care for a wider range of patients, using the same hand control, procedure navigation techniques and workflow they are familiar with on Philips\u2019 EPIQ cardiac ultrasound systems. As a result, echocardiographers require minimal additional training on this newest transducer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new transducer is compatible with Philips\u2019 premium cardiology ultrasound portfolio including the EPIQ CVx and EchoNavigator image-guided therapy solution, allowing clinicians to deliver personalized, efficient, and clinically smart cardiac care to help improve outcomes and the patient experience. It also joins a portfolio that includes another significant innovation \u2013 VeriSight Pro \u2013 the first 3D intracardiac echocardiography catheter to miniaturize the same 3D imaging technology that powers TEE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Philips X11-4t ultrasound transducer is scheduled for commercial availability in 2024 and is pending CE mark in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To view the source version, please click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.philips.com\/a-w\/about\/news\/archive\/standard\/news\/press\/2024\/new-philips-mini-tee-ultrasound-transducer-helps-improve-cardiac-care-for-more-patients.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Philips has developed the smaller X11- 4t Mini 3D TEE transducer to serve more patients with this valuable imaging tool, from pediatric patients to older adults and everyone in between<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":28630,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[7,488,676,25],"tags":[687,57,655],"class_list":["post-28629","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-americas","category-breaking-news","category-imaging-diagnostics","category-products-technologies","tag-fda","tag-philips","tag-ultrasound"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28629","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28629"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28629\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28631,"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28629\/revisions\/28631"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28629"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28629"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/g-medtech.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28629"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
