Philips C8-5 broadband micro-convex probe with 8–5 MHz range, 128 elements and 122° field of view. Designed for pediatric abdominal and neonatal cephalic imaging.
The Philips C8-5 is a micro-convex narrow-curved-array ultrasound transducer designed to provide high-resolution imaging for pediatric and neonatal examinations. Its compact design, broad frequency range and wide field of view make it particularly suitable for examinations requiring detailed visualization of anatomical structures in small patients.
The C8-5 uses broadband technology with a frequency range of 5–8 MHz. This range allows imaging to be adapted to different examination depths while maintaining good resolution for pediatric and neonatal anatomical assessment.
The narrow curved-array design of the C8-5 provides a 122° field of view while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for pediatric and neonatal examinations. This geometry facilitates access to anatomical areas where a standard convex transducer may be less practical.
Philips primarily specifies the C8-5 for pediatric abdominal imaging and neonatal cephalic imaging. It is designed for examinations requiring a compact transducer with broad anatomical coverage.
These modes combine 2D anatomical imaging with Doppler techniques and image-enhancement technologies to support pediatric and neonatal examinations.
The C8-5 is particularly suitable for pediatric abdominal examinations. Its micro-convex design provides broad anatomical coverage while maintaining a relatively compact footprint, making it practical for use with smaller patients.
The transducer is also specified by Philips for neonatal cephalic imaging. Its geometry and frequency range are suited to ultrasound examination of cephalic and cerebral structures in newborn patients.
Support for steerable pulsed-wave Doppler and color Doppler allows blood-flow assessment when these modes are available on the connected ultrasound system. Color Power Angio and directional CPA provide additional options for vascular evaluation.
The Philips C8-5 is biopsy capable. It can therefore be used with appropriate biopsy accessories when supported by the ultrasound system configuration and the clinical procedure.
The Philips C8-5 is a 128-element broadband micro-convex transducer operating over a 5–8 MHz frequency range, with a 22.4 mm aperture and a 122° field of view. It is primarily designed for pediatric abdominal and neonatal cephalic imaging and supports 2D, Doppler, SonoCT, XRES and harmonic imaging.
