 HI VISION Ultrasound Transducers
Giving Panoramic Views of the Body

Hitachi Medical Systems presents its extensive range of high resolution

linear, convex, and phased array wideband transducers providing unparalleled
versatility within all applications from abdominal, obstetrics and gynaecology
through to superficial, vascular and cardiac. In addition, highly specialized
transducers support endoscopic, biopsy, endorectal, laparoscopic, intra-
operative, and intraluminal investigations.
The transducers are produced using Hitachi's proprietary Super Multilayer
transducer technology with wide bandwidths, enabling multiple selectable
frequencies for native B-mode, tissue harmonics, colour and pulse wave
Doppler. Ergonomic design, light-weight housing materials, along with cable
flexibility and length minimise strain on the hand and wrist.

Hitachi Medical Systems Europe is the European headquarters of Hitachi Medical Corporation and Hitachi Aloka
Medical Ltd whose corporate head offices are located in Tokyo, Japan; two companies renowned for technological
innovation. Our broad experience and expertise in ultrasound imaging makes us a recognized leader in this field, meeting
the latest design and quality standards, combined with outstanding image quality and advanced clinical applications.

 Our HI VISION Transducer Range Linear Transducers

At the forefront of fundamental material research and cable design, we earned

a place in history by introducing the first curved linear array. Today, we still
manufacture the majority of our transducers in-house and are at the leading edge
of transducer materials design. EUP L52 EUP L73S EUP L53 EUP L53L

system hardware developments. Our 7-series transducers represent just such

advancement: the expanded bandwidth required to exploit the state-of-the-art
technologies on our HI VISION platforms (compounding techniques, advanced
tissue harmonics, and HI Rez+ tissue adaptive filtering). Each 7-series probe is
designed for high performance across all operating frequencies.1
