The iU22 intelligent ultrasound system helps you address your daily challenges. Its image quality, ease of use, automated quantification and workflow solutions give you tools that increase confidence in diagnoses and improve throughput.


3 Key reasons for radiology labs



1) Reduce ultrasound exam time 30-50%


Studies show that exam time can be reduced when using Protocols on the iU22 system. In addition to saving time, Protocols also reduce keystrokes, by up to 300 for some exams, create consistency from user to user and across the department and reduce the need for rescans due to missed views.

2) Your solution to imaging technically difficult patients


The C5-1 was designed for scanning your most challenging patients. The transducer size and shape facilitate access and improve comfort during scanning, and PureWave crystal technology supports unparalleled image clarity on difficult patients. Click on the following links to hear what the radiology team at St. Paul’s Hospital in Vancouver B.C. is saying about:  the problemmaking exams easiersaving timeergonomics, and  diagnostic confidence.

3) Move ultrasound to the CT/MR model


Volume imaging enhances workflow in the radiology department. More data is captured in just a few volume sets, shortening exams and allowing clinicians to review and manipulate to obtain the best images needed for the diagnosis. Click on the following links to hear what Dr. Simon Elliott from Freeman Hospital in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, U.K. has to say about moving ultrasound to the MR/CT model, integrating volume imaging, retrospective viewing, rescuing scans, time savings, and sonographer benefits.

3 Key reasons for ob/gyn and perinatology departments



1) The latest ultrasound solution for technically difficult patients

 

 

The new C5-1 could become your transducer of choice for all your patients. It provides the penetration you need for difficult patients. Philips proven PureWave crystal technology and new advanced XRES performance have been coupled in this transducer that was designed for imaging deep structures and reducing sonographer stress. You’ll realize superb imaging results on all your patients—including the obese and the most technically challenging.

2) Reduce ultrasound exam time by 30-50%

 

Protocols are all about consistency, completeness and comfort – not about control. Use presets or design your own. Either way, you are streamlining your exams, and increasing confidence that you are capturing all the required views. You’ll be amazed at how few keystrokes are needed with Protocols’ automatic annotation.

3) Image structures in 3 planes, in real time

 

 

Technology has advanced, and 3D imaging is more than baby faces. In addition to being able to review data from any angle and increase your confidence in diagnoses, volume imaging also reduces the need for rescans – you already have the information in data sets and can re-interrogate and review at any time.
