BOSTON, Mass. and STOCKHOLM, Sweden – April 11, 2011 – At the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) Annual Convention this week, ContextVision, the software imaging partner for the most recognized medical imaging manufacturers worldwide, will unveil its cutting-edge ultrasound image enhancement family, US PLUSView™. This modular family enables equipment manufacturers to deliver a full range of ultrasound image enhancement capabilities to their customers, including deeper penetration and improved speckle reduction features for the obese and other technically difficult patients.

The unique US PLUSView product family sets new standards as it enables directed, focused image enhancement (DFE) of selected areas, depths and intensities without sacrificing overall image quality.
