Pediatrics solution

Big performance for small patients

Non-specific abdominal pain, congenital malformations, developmental disorders or juvenile obesity – pediatric ultrasound covers a wide range of clinical targets and age groups. From newborns to adolescents, Aplio offers many specialized tools to help you meet these imaging challenges with consistently high quality, efficiency and diagnostic reliability.

High performance
from newborn to
adolescent

 From small to difficult-to-image patients, Canon's innovative beamforming architecture provides outstanding image clarity and definition with exceptional penetration, for a wide spectrum of patient conditions.

 

Fast and secure
with automated
workflows

While patient numbers continue to increase and studies become more detailed, patients are getting larger and more difficult to scan. To streamline your workflow, Aplio can help you automate time-consuming measurements and actively support you in executing protocols for consistent documentation.

 

Optimized
comfort and
efficiency

Aplio systems are Healthy Sonographer platforms with adaptive ergonomics. This platform allows you to customize the system to your preferences, the exam and the patient in a way that improves the comfort and efficiency of your exam while improving the patient experience.

Pediatric radiology

Reliable outcomes for pediatric care

Early and precise diagnoses can be of decisive importance for the quality and health of your young patients’ entire subsequent life. With robust, high-resolution imaging and advanced assessment options, Canon's comprehensive ultrasound portfolio offers a wide range of tools for the assessment and monitoring of pediatric diseases and disorders.

Screening and prevention

Overweight and obesity are increasing health risk factors also in children. Aplio’s liver analysis package allows you to get a comprehensive liver status in just a few minutes during routine exams - a great tool for assisting clinicians in screening and diagnosis.

Advanced applications

Superior quality for the toughest of needs

Also in pediatric imaging, it sometimes simply takes that little extra to provide the best possible care. Thanks to their advanced matrix technology, Canon ultrasound systems can provide excellent imaging even in larger patients as well as for high frequency applications such as musculoskeletal imaging. Highly specialized tools can also assist clinicians in efficient monitoring, for example, as part of screening and prevention programs.

Canon's intelligent Dynamic Micro-Slice (iDMS) transducers can help promote improved clinical precision and detail across the depth range by actively electronically focusing the slice thickness across the entire depth of penetration.

Clinical images

Canon’s Full Focus feature provides clear, uniform images across all depths without the need for focus adjustment, so you can achieve greater uniformity with fewer steps.

Pediatric echocardiography

Making echo easier

Diagnosing congenital heart disease almost always begins with an echocardiogram. Whether your patient is calm or agitated, it is critical to get the information you need quickly, accurately, and reproducibly.
With specialized transducers, streamlined workflows, and a host of Altivity-enabled productivity features, Aplio can help you meet the challenges of pediatric echocardiography with efficiency and reliability.

Canon's pediatric transducers are lightweight and ergonomic, with a small contact area that suits children’s physiques. Their exceptional wideband capability makes them suitable for a broad range of age groups and use cases.

Clinical images

Aplio offers exceptionally high image resolution for fast, confident and efficient visual and in-depth assessment of the heart, for both transthoracic and transesophageal examinations.
