Video: Medical Imaging Equipment OEMs Can Achieve Faster, More Accurate Results with TI's Portfolio of Embedded Processors and Analo...(or medical imaging available Addressi...),Health

Addressing many challenges facing imaging OEMs, TI begins with the signal chain -- taking the analog signal captured by the machine, digitizing it for analysis and then converting it back to analog for viewing by the physician or clinician. Surrounding the signal chain, TI also provides power management, clocks, interface, amplifiers and data converters, resulting in the broadest semiconductor portfolio products available for all medical imaging modalities. TI's embedded processors range from high-performance multicore devices to very low-power products that meet the imaging equipment manufacturers' needs. For example, TI's numerous multicore products offer significant computational performance required by OEMs for high-end imaging modalities. High-performance single-core processors such as the TMS320C6455 and TMS320C6452 are well-suited for imaging modalities requiring real-time operations such as ultrasound, digital x-ray, OCT, hyperspectral imaging and other emerging applications. Leveraging TI's industry-recognized imaging capabilities, the TMS320DM644x family improves backend processing for imaging applications. Portable and handheld applications benefit from TI's low power OMAP(TM) and TMS320C67x processor platforms, which deliver significantly more performance versus power than traditional field programmable gate arrays (FPGA). TI's portfolio of products based on DaVinci(TM) technology offers a complete processing solution with a combination of peripherals, memory and processors to significantly reduce board space and complexity for smaller products that can get to market faster.

Each of these processors is surrounded by a robust gathering of analog products designed to enhance the power efficiency, speed and processing of the images captured on screen. For ultrasound applications specifically, TI offers tailor-made analog signal chain products like the AFE58xx family of fully integrated analog front ends, which allo
