The SuperSonic Imagine Aixplorer is a premium diagnostic ultrasound platform best known for pioneering real-time ShearWave elastography. It became very popular in breast, thyroid, liver, prostate, vascular, and MSK imaging because of its UltraFast imaging architecture and excellent elastography performance.

Main Features

Real-Time ShearWave™ Elastography (SWE)

This is the flagship feature.

The system can:

• Measure tissue stiffness quantitatively (kPa or m/s)
• Display elasticity maps in real time
• Help characterize lesions and fibrosis
• Reduce operator dependency compared to strain elastography

Applications:

• Breast lesion characterization
• Liver fibrosis staging
• Thyroid nodules
• Prostate imaging
• Tendons and musculoskeletal exams

 

UltraFast™ Imaging

Aixplorer acquires images dramatically faster than conventional ultrasound systems.

Benefits:

• Very high temporal resolution
• Advanced Doppler sensitivity
• Better visualization of microvascular flow
• Simultaneous shear-wave generation and acquisition

 

Advanced Doppler Modes

Includes:

• Color Doppler
• Power Doppler
• Pulsed Wave Doppler
• UltraFast Doppler

UltraFast Doppler is particularly useful for:

• Vascular imaging
• Small vessels
• Low-flow detection
• Hemodynamic assessment

 

Excellent B-Mode Image Quality

Known for:

• High contrast resolution
• Sharp superficial imaging
• Strong small-parts performance
• Good breast and thyroid detail

Especially appreciated in:

• Radiology
• Breast clinics
• Endocrinology
• MSK

Multi-Application Platform

Depending on probes/software packages, it supports:

• Abdomen
• Small parts
• Breast
• Thyroid
• MSK
• Vascular
• Urology
• Liver
• OB/GYN
• Interventional guidance

Touchscreen Workflow

Features:

• Large touchscreen interface
• Custom presets
• Quick measurement tools
• Streamlined workflow

Older models already felt relatively modern compared with many competitors from the same era.

3D / Advanced Imaging (certain versions)

Later versions and MACH series added:

• 3D breast imaging
• ShearWave PLUS
• Improved processing
• Enhanced AI-assisted workflow
