Hitachi Medical Systems America Inc.;
The EUB-525 is a mid-size ultrasound system with a full feature set. Capable of B-mode, M-mode, Doppler, color flow and color angiography it performs a variety of tasks in a simple and straightforward fashion. This system produces high quality images with excellent clarity and detail.

Echography (also called sonography) allows visualizing deep structures of the body by recording the reflections (echo) of ultrasound waves directed into the tissues. A medical diagnostic sonogram (echogram), as in echocardiography and echoencephalography, utilizes a frequency range of 1 to 10 MHz.

From Bayer Schering Pharma AG:
Echovist-200® was an effectively one-pass-only contrast medium for contrast sonography and Doppler-echocardiographic examinations for the detection, exclusion or follow-up of pathological states leading to hemodynamic changes. Because of the short intravascular life of the microparticles and microbubbles, transit through the pulmonary circulation is unusual. In cardiac evaluations Echovist-200® has been replaced by newer ultrasound contrast agents (USCA), therefore the manufacturing was discontinued.
Another range of echo contrast application is the female genital tract, in particular for the demonstration or exclusion of acquired or congenital changes of the uterine cavity and for the visualization of the Fallopian tubes and investigation of their patency.
1 g Echovist-200 granules contain 1 g D-galactose microparticles. 1 ml aqueous solution for production of the suspension contains 200 mg D-galactose.
Brand names in other countries: Ecovist.
