ACIST Showcases Hi-Definition IVUS System

At last month's Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics meeting in Washington, DC, a new high-definition intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) system was demonstrated as part of two live case broadcasts. The system, manufactured by ACIST Medical of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, is billed as "hi-def" because it images at a frequency of 60mHz. Current systems image in the range of 20mHz and 45mHz.
