A cardiovascular ultrasound system also known as an echocardiography system is a medical imaging device used for non-invasive assessment and visualization of the heart and blood vessels within the body. It employs high-frequency sound waves (ultrasound) to create real-time images and videos of the heart's structure, function, and blood flow patterns. This technology is essential for diagnosing and monitoring various cardiovascular conditions, such as heart valve diseases, congenital heart defects, heart muscle disorders, vascular abnormalities and others.
Cardiac ultrasound should be performed with a low-frequency probe that has a small footprint that can fit between the ribs, using a cardiac setting. Ultrasound is defined as a frequency greater than 20,000 Hertz (Hz). The ultrasound probe sends sound waves, which the patient does not hear or feel, through the body. When the sound waves bounce off internal structures, the technology interprets the "echos" of the returning waves and reconstructs a moving picture of the patient's heart in real-time.
The increasing demand for advanced cardiovascular ultrasound systems is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. The advanced systems include artificial intelligence features that are responsible for better patient outcomes by performing minimally invasive procedures. These advanced systems helps to enable clinicians to acquire faster and more repeatable tests.
For instance, on August 25, 2023, Siemens Healthineers launched the Acuson Origin, a dedicated cardiovascular ultrasound system with new, robust artificial intelligence (AI) features. Designed to improve patient outcomes and help physicians perform minimally invasive cardiac procedures more efficiently, the Acuson Origin addresses the entire continuum of cardiovascular patient care, including diagnostic, structural heart, electrophysiological, and pediatric procedures.
Additionally, on October 12, 2020, GE Healthcare released U.S. FDA 510k clearance for its Ultra Edition package on Vivid cardiovascular ultrasound systems, which includes new features based on artificial intelligence (AI) that enable clinicians to acquire faster, more repeatable exams consistently.
