SONDE LINÉAIRE PHILIPS L12-3

Starting from
945 .00 €

The Philips L12-3 is a broadband linear array probe (12–3 MHz, 160 elements, 38 mm aperture) for vascular, MSK, small parts and superficial imaging. The Ergo version adds an ergonomic grip, MicroFlow Imaging and XRES Pro. Biopsy capable.

Philips L12-3 Linear Ultrasound Probe

The Philips L12-3 is a broadband linear-array ultrasound transducer designed for detailed imaging of superficial and relatively shallow anatomical structures. Its 12–3 MHz frequency range provides a balance between high-resolution imaging and penetration, making it suitable for a broad range of vascular, musculoskeletal, superficial, and interventional examinations.

Technical Specifications

  • Model: Philips L12-3
  • Transducer type: Linear array
  • Technology: Broadband
  • Number of elements: 160
  • Frequency range: 12–3 MHz
  • Aperture: 38 mm
  • Biopsy capable: Yes
  • Image Fusion Navigation capable: No

Imaging Modes

The L12-3 supports several imaging and Doppler modes designed to provide detailed anatomical visualization and assessment of blood flow. Philips documents the following modes and imaging technologies for this transducer:

  • 2D imaging
  • Steerable pulsed-wave Doppler
  • Steerable color Doppler
  • Color Power Angio (CPA)
  • SonoCT imaging
  • Variable XRES technology
  • Multivariate harmonic imaging

Clinical Applications

The Philips L12-3 is designed for a wide range of examinations involving superficial and moderately deep structures. Its linear configuration is particularly suitable when high-resolution visualization is required.

  • Vascular examinations
  • Carotid artery imaging
  • Arterial examinations
  • Venous examinations
  • Interventional procedures
  • Bowel imaging
  • Musculoskeletal (MSK) examinations
  • Small-parts imaging
  • Superficial structure imaging

Vascular Imaging

The L12-3 is particularly suited to vascular ultrasound. Its linear-array geometry and broadband frequency range support detailed visualization of carotid, arterial, and venous structures. Color and pulsed-wave Doppler capabilities can be used for assessment of blood flow when supported by the ultrasound system.

Musculoskeletal and Small-Parts Imaging

The high-frequency capability of the L12-3 makes it suitable for imaging superficial anatomical structures. It can be used for musculoskeletal examinations and small-parts imaging where detailed visualization of superficial tissues is required.

Interventional Applications

The L12-3 is documented for interventional applications and is biopsy capable. Its linear design can provide a practical imaging field for procedures requiring ultrasound guidance.

Broadband Technology

The broadband design provides an operating range from 3 to 12 MHz. Lower frequencies within the range can support greater penetration, while higher frequencies can provide increased detail for superficial structures. This makes the transducer adaptable to different examination requirements.

Biopsy Capability

Philips specifically identifies the L12-3 as biopsy capable. This allows the transducer to be used with appropriate compatible biopsy accessories for ultrasound-guided procedures.

Image Fusion and Navigation

The Philips specifications identify the L12-3 as not capable of Image Fusion Navigation. It should therefore not be described as supporting image-fusion navigation without additional system-specific documentation.

Field of View

Philips does not provide a numerical field-of-view value for the L12-3 in the official specification currently available. Therefore, no numerical field-of-view measurement is included here.
