Description
The Arjo Dopplex VP8 XS is an 8 MHz high sensitivity vascular probe for peripheral and superficial vessels, fitting the Dopplex DMX, D900 and SD2. Supply is per single unit for hospital and clinic use.
Main Description
The 8 MHz frequency resolves peripheral and superficial vessels with detail. It is a standard choice for ankle and arm pressure work and peripheral assessment. XS high sensitivity construction helps locate smaller, weaker signals. The probe is interchangeable across the Dopplex handheld range. With the DMX it supports waveform-confirmed pressure measurement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which vessels is the VP8 XS for?
Peripheral and superficial vessels.
Which Dopplers does it fit?
The Dopplex DMX, D900 and SD2.
How does it differ from the EZ8?
The VP8 XS is a standard 8 MHz probe. The EZ8 XS is an 8 MHz widebeam design that is easier to locate vessels with.
Can it be used for toe pressures?
Toe pressure work uses the ATP kit arrangement with the EZ8 widebeam and PPG. The VP8 supports general peripheral assessment.
Does it need gel?
Yes. Use ultrasound gel for acoustic coupling.
