Canon Medical Systems PVT-661VT Probe

The Canon Medical Systems PVT-661VT is an endocavity broadband transducer that operates across a selectable frequency range of approximately 3.6 MHz to 8.8 MHz, with a native center frequency around 6 MHz. It also supports Tissue Harmonic Imaging (THI) and Dynamic THI (D-THI) modes, enabling clinicians to enhance resolution and contrast while maintaining sufficient penetration for intracavity imaging.

With a field of view of about 160°, the probe delivers wide coverage and high-resolution imaging of pelvic structures. While the exact scan depth is not explicitly specified, its frequency characteristics indicate optimization for near-to-mid-field imaging, where detail and clarity are prioritized over maximum penetration depth.

Its design and imaging capabilities make it suitable for the following clinical applications:

• Endovaginal Imaging
• Endorectal Imaging
• Early Obstetric Imaging
• Gynecological Diagnostics

Brand and Manufacturing

The Canon Medical Systems PVT-661VT was originally developed and manufactured by Toshiba before the company’s medical division was rebranded under Canon Medical Systems.

When Canon Inc. acquired Toshiba Medical Systems in 2016, the division was renamed Canon Medical Systems Corporation. Through this acquisition, Canon inherited Toshiba’s extensive R&D expertise, product lines, and manufacturing capabilities. Probes such as the PVT-661VT belong to a long-established lineage of ultrasound transducers originally pioneered by Toshiba and now further developed and supported under the Canon brand.
