The innovative features of the MyLab™Class C allow the system
to be placed in any type of environment, always providing easy,
fast and reliable access to diagnostics and shared data.
Prevention and quantification in cardiovascular imaging are
accessible at your fingertips: the prevention suite with
state-of-the-art RF-QIMT, RF-QAS, XStrain™,
CFI technologies and iQProbes probes guarantee the
best possible diagnostic approach.
In general imaging today, CnTI™ (Contrast Tuned Imaging) for
contrast agent procedures, HD CFM and XFlow,
high-frequency imaging, X4D technology,
Virtual Navigator and Elaxto elastosonography meet all
clinical needs.

Imaging processing: Esaote offers numerous technologies for
image enhancement. With TEI™ , the harmonic signal is
fully preserved without degrading acoustic information.
MView and XView improve ultrasound image quality by
reducing the presence of artifacts, background noise and
superimposition.
CnTI™ - Adjusted contrast imaging for procedures with
contrast agents: CnTI™, Esaote's revolutionary technology
combined with the ultimate generation of ultrasound contrast
agents delivers impressive clinical results due to
the extremely accurate detection of microbubbles.
The very low acoustic pressure applied increases the
lifetime of the bubbles, with a view to clear identification of
the arterial and late phase.
The very high sensitivity of the probes and the low level of
noise and artifacts enable precise diagnoses,
both for the detection and characterization of lesions.
A dedicated contrast quantification tool is also available.
HD CFM and XFlow - Extraordinary flow sensitivity and
spatial resolution: The resolution and sensitivity of
Color Doppler mode are of great importance for
blood flow assessment, particularly when flow velocity and
size are limited. HD CFM technology helps the user to
define the right setting for maximum clinical information.
For specific diagnostic processes where morphological
information is more important than
the hemodynamics themselves,
XFlow produces images of great clarity with low artifacts,
and less dependence on the insonation angle.
High-frequency imaging: Esaote's historic leadership in
high-frequency imaging ensures an unexpected level of
detail in applications where superficial images are required.
22 MHz transducers, XView, MView, ElaXto and X4D applications,
and the "A Universe under the mm" software package are
just a few examples of the technological potential of
the MyLab™Class C system.
The clinical results are simply astounding,
as they open up new fields of research and take diagnosis to
another level. Cutting-edge technologies such as ElaXto and
X4D are implemented not as additional qualitative information,
but as an important quantitative suite to produce an
objective and rapid diagnosis.

X4D technology: The advanced 3D/4D software package
benefits from innovations in the conventional visualization of
2D ultrasound images through spphisticated algorithms,
and is capable of producing outstanding 3D/4D volume
reconstructions. Measurements of length, area,
perimeter, diameter and angle, as well as
volume zones in a multi-dimensional display,
enable quantitative analysis and qualitative acquisition,
combined with a special database for archiving all
personal data sets.
RFQIMT - RF-based qualitative measurement of
media intima thickness for early detection of
cardiovascular disease: RFQIMT technology aims to
measure the thickness of a blood vessel in
the area of the carotid artery selected for examination.
Its ease of use, combined with real-time qualitative feedback,
helps the operator to obtain accurate, reproducible results.
Measurements (even if taken at different times during the
examination) can be plotted in a standardized graph
displayed together with reading indicators,
helping physicians to establish their diagnoses and
therapeutic procedures.
RFQAS - Qualitative measurement of arterial stiffness for
early detection of cardiovascular disease: RFQAS technology
measures the stiffness of a blood vessel in the area of
the carotid artery selected for examination.
Blood vessel wall stiffness is expressed in terms of
brachial arterial pressure, with precise measurement of
diameter and changes in diameter. Local blood pressure at
the site of ultrasound measurements is also recorded.
Local blood pressure and stiffness are derived as
quantitative results based on sophisticated clinical studies.
Automatic measurement and adjustment: Quantifying the
Doppler profile is an important issue in cardiology and
vascular ultrasound examinations. Once the volume of
interest has been determined and the Doppler trace is
displayed on the monitor, the user can select real-time
evaluation of all essential clinical parameters by
activating the ADM function. Using the image freeze mode of
your choice, you can also trace the Doppler contour and
automatically record maximum, mean and minimum values.
Features such as EF (Ejection Fraction) calculation and
ADM (Automatic Measurement) provide quantification of
the most important clinical parameters in
the shortest possible time.
This enables faster screening and precise patient management
in cases of potential disorders, which can then be
investigated further.
CFI (Coronary Flow Imaging) - Coronary Flow Imaging for
the assessment of coronary artery blood flow and
its main characteristics: The assessment of
coronary blood flow characteristics is also significant with
regard to baseline cardiac activity without
any external induced cardiac stress.
If a CFI Color Doppler preset is activated,
the signal from coronary artery blood flow is optimized in
relation to many of the concomitant blood flow
velocity components present in the heart's atria and ventricles.
The combination of the Cardiac iQ-probe and the CFI
(Coronary Flow Imaging) preset offers superior performance in
CFM/PW modes for coronary flow detection and measurement.
XStrain™: XStrain™ is a non-invasive tool that enables better
exploration of myocardial function and quantification of
aspects of heart physiology that were not possible to
detect and quantify with previous ultrasound technologies.
Myocardial velocity, myocardial overload and
overload ratio enable early detection of
cardiac function deficiencies (assessed as
ejection fraction or stroke volume).
Based on angle-independent technology,
the XStrain™ function assesses the contractility of
both left and right ventricles. XStrain™ is an innovative tool for
the mechanical assessment of cardiac wall motion.
It can therefore provide quantitative support for
standard ultrasound examinations and be used to
examine and monitor patients, in order to identify early signs of
changes in cardiac wall motility.
Advanced Virtual Navigator tool for Fusion imaging (US and
CT/MR/PET-CT): the Virtual Navigator tool with
Fusion imaging applied to ultrasound enhances the
information produced by an ultrasound scanner by
combining it with a second imaging modality
(CT, MR, PET or 3D US) in real time,
offering all the advantages of different modalities in
a single examination.
Virtual Biopsy - Advanced biopsy even in highly complex
approaches: the Virtual Biopsy function enables you to
follow a percutaneous procedure by
superimposing needle tracking information on
the real-time ultrasound image.
