Exact Imaging’s ExactVu™ micro-ultrasound system for prostate imaging and targeted biopsy provides a 300% improvement in resolution over current standard-of-care ultrasound systems and superior resolution to MRI. Urologists can visualize suspicious regions and actually target (instead of blindly place) biopsies to those regions, aided by the PRI-MUS™ evidence-based micro-ultrasound protocol. For the minority of cases where MRI might assist (ie. prior negative biopsies), FusionVu™ is the forthcoming micro-US/MRI fusion application operating on the ExactVu micro-ultrasound platform.
