Philips S5-1 PureWave Cardiac Ultrasound Probe
The Philips S5-1 ultrasound probe is a 1–5 MHz PureWave sector-array transducer for cardiac and general ultrasound imaging. Its wide frequency range supports adult echo, pediatric echo, abdominal, and transcranial Doppler examinations. In addition, Simon Medical connected and functionally tested this specific probe on a Philips CX50 ultrasound system.
1–5 MHz PureWave Sector-Array Transducer
Philips designed the S5-1 with PureWave crystal technology and an 80-element sector array. Its 1–5 MHz frequency range helps trained users balance image detail and tissue penetration. As a result, the probe can support several cardiac and general imaging needs.
The transducer also provides a 20.3 mm aperture and a 90-degree field of view. Therefore, its compact scan head can produce a broad sector image through a small contact area.
Supported Ultrasound Imaging Modes
The Philips S5-1 supports several imaging modes when connected to a compatible and properly configured Philips ultrasound system. For example, supported functions may include:
- 2D imaging: Displays real-time anatomical images
- Continuous-wave Doppler: Supports measurement of higher blood-flow velocities
- Pulsed-wave Doppler: Measures blood flow within a selected sample area
- Steerable PW Doppler: Helps users adjust the Doppler sample direction
- High-PRF Doppler: Supports higher velocity measurements
- Color Doppler: Displays blood-flow direction and movement
- Tissue Doppler: Supports the study of tissue motion
- Contrast imaging: Supports compatible contrast-imaging modes
- Biopsy capability: Works with approved guides and accessories when supported
However, available modes depend on the ultrasound system, software version, installed options, and clinical preset. This listing does not include a biopsy guide or other procedure accessories. Therefore, buyers should confirm every required feature before ordering.
Adult Echo, Pediatric Echo, Abdominal, and TCD Applications
The Philips S5-1 PureWave probe supports several professional ultrasound applications.
- Adult echocardiography: Supports transthoracic cardiac imaging
- Pediatric echocardiography: Supports cardiac imaging for pediatric patients
- Abdominal imaging: Provides sector imaging for approved abdominal examinations
- Transcranial Doppler: Supports TCD examinations on compatible systems
In addition, the sector-array format suits examinations that require a broad image from a smaller acoustic window. Trained healthcare professionals must select the correct system settings and clinical preset for each examination.
Philips CX50 and Ultrasound-System Compatibility
Simon Medical tested this specific S5-1 probe on a Philips CX50 ultrasound system. In addition, the S5-1 family is commonly associated with compatible Philips EPIQ, Affiniti, iE33, iU22, and HD15 systems.
However, compatibility can vary by system generation, software version, connector type, and installed options. Therefore, buyers should compare the probe’s photographs and product numbers with their ultrasound system before purchase.
