The Model 7810 is Ivy Biomedical System’s newest product introduction providing dual (cardiac and respiratory) gating functionality used in applications requiring precision ECG R-wave and respiratory cycle synchronization for gating host systems on and off. The Model 7810 incorporates an intuitive, menu-driven, touch-screen user interface, simplifying operation for clinicians and technicians.
Applications
The Model 7810 can be used for cardiovascular diagnostic imaging studies as well as thoracic diagnostic imaging studies, particularly in SPECT, PET or PET/CT applications.
Worry Free Operation
Acquiring reliable and consistent ECG triggers can often be a challenging task, and selecting the right ECG vector can be problematic. The Model 7810 uses a 4-lead ECG configuration in order to provide automatic lead selection capability. This feature monitors each ECG vector simultaneously, and automatically selects the best ECG lead for triggering, thereby delivering reliable triggering even under challenging or changing patient conditions. Red markers on the ECG and RESP waveforms indicate when and where triggering occurred for visual verification and assurance. In addition, an electrode impedance measurement function enables quick verification of proper electrode/skin preparation prior to patient scans.
Motion Artifact Reduction
Respiratory motion artifacts can be reduced during thoracic imaging scans with the use of the Model 7810 pneumatic bellows for monitoring chest and abdominal movement, and providing respiratory trigger pulses at predefined intervals/limits in the patient’s respiratory cycle.
