Intravascular Ultrasound Systems Market

Report Description
The imagining is captured by the frequency of the ultrasound which varies type of
vessels which is to be scanned.
Often used frequency is 20 MHz
Vascular imagining for a medium sized vessel is 12.5 - 50 MHz
Vascular imagining for a large vessel such a aorta is 12.5 - 20 MHz
Smaller vessels require high frequency of probes within a range of 30-40 MHz
Two types of catheter systems are, one with an end-hole which are delivered over the
guide wire, and those which do not have an end-hole and are introduced directly through
the sheath.
The transducer design have been approached into two basic ways, i.e.
Phased-array
Mechanical type
In the phased-array systems, there are multiple transducer elements (32-64) which are
in arranged in an array are activated sequentially to generate the image.
Mechanical probes rotates an electric transducer at 1800 rpm, which has the capacity to
produce 30 images per second.
Intravascular Ultrasound Systems Market: Drivers and Restraints
There is drastic Increase in the number percutaneous coronary interventions and
number of stent procedures. Major Lot of population now a days prefer less invasive
procedures, the technological advancements in image guided therapeutic treatment and
growing incidence of cardiovascular disease led to the increase in the intravascular
