EA

The ExactVu is the only ultrasound platform in the world that has the architecture to support both a high frequency (29 MHz) and a conventional (3-12 MHz) transducer, which provides a total urological imaging solution in one platform. In addition, it is the only commercial ultrasound for clinical urological applications that operates at 29 MHz and enables resolution down to 70 µ, allowing urologists to target without the need for a secondary modality like MRI. ExactVu has the ability to help urologists identify and stratify the possible severity of micro-ultrasound-based characteristics of the prostate through prostate risk identification using micro-sound capabilities. This tool can help identify the characteristics of potentially significant lesions and other suspicious regions. The ultrasound system can be used in place of an MRI and is proven to render quality images 300% better than conventional ultrasounds. The EV29L transducers are proprietary and specific to the ExactVu ultrasound system and only available from Exact Imaging Inc. s authorized distributor, JE Hurley Co.

The associated North America Classification Systems (NAICS) Code is 334510 and the Business Size Standard is 1250 employees.
