New CANON PLT-1005BT

The PLT-1005BT is a linear array ultrasound transducer originally manufactured by Toshiba, which is now part of Canon Medical Systems. It is a high-frequency probe designed for high-resolution imaging of superficial structures.
Specifications:
Form Factor: Linear Array. This type of probe produces a rectangular, flat image and is well-suited for scanning near-surface anatomy.
Frequency Range: The frequency range is typically cited as 5.0−14.0 MHz, but some sources also mention a range of 4.0−14.0 MHz. This high frequency allows for excellent resolution of small, superficial structures.
Compatibility: The PLT-1005BT is compatible with a number of Canon/Toshiba Aplio ultrasound systems, including:
Aplio 300 (TUS-A300) , Aplio 400 (TUS-A400) , Aplio 500 (TUS-A500)
Also compatibile with the Aplio i-series, such as the i600, i700, i800, and i900.
Applications:
The high frequency and linear format of the PLT-1005BT make it ideal for a variety of clinical applications, including:
Small Parts: Imaging of small organs and structures, such as the breast, thyroid, and testicles.
Vascular: Detailed examination of blood vessels, including peripheral vascular studies of the carotid arteries and the vessels in the arms and legs.
Musculoskeletal (MSK): Assessment of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints.
