High Power ultrasound treatment monitoring
HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) applications
require real time imaging for treatment monitoring. MRI and Ultrasonic
Imaging are convenient means to fulfil this need.
MRI compatible HIFU transducers
MRI implies particular constraints for the transducer
components and structure.
Imasonic has developed specific technological solutions to meet
these constraints while keeping a high level of performances, including
power, efficiency and array capability

Wideband HIFU transducers
IImasonic can to design and manufacture high power
wideband transducer compatible with ultrasonic imaging requirements.
The same elements can be used for both the treatment and the monitoring.

Integration of an echographic probe into a HIFU
transducer
High power transducer can be mechanically designed
in order to take into account the space needed for integrating a
separate imaging transducer.
