Siemens showed off their ACUSON AcuNav V, the world’s first intra-cardiac echocardiography catheter for volume imaging, at the 2009 Scientific Sessions of the Heart Rhythm Society in Boston, MA, USA.
With real-time volumetric information from inside the heart, the new ACUSON AcuNav V volume catheter is said to improve therapeutic ablation procedures and other electrophysiology (EP) applications; facilitating workflow and improving performance in the EP lab. It provides physicians with high-resolution volumetric ultrasound information about the anatomy and the tools used during EP procedures to improve patient care and increase safety within the EP lab.
