ACUSON P500 IntraCardiac Echocardiography (ICE) Edition
The ACUSON P500, with a smaller footprint in a crowded technology environment, also offers an IntraCardiac Echocardiography (ICE) Edition that integrates the imaging capabilities of the ACUSON AcuNav™ family of catheters to the ACUSON P500 system. The utilization of the 10F & 8F ACUSON AcuNav ultrasound catheters provide real-time visualization of cardiac anatomy, catheters and devices within the heart and creates 3D contours of the heart chambers with the SoundStar® catheter. In addition, the bedside remote control capability allows the clinician quick access to image optimization.
Clinical Use
The ACUSON P500 enables reliable and fast imaging by offering new and pioneering high-end imaging technology. It provides standardized, high-quality images with more depth, clearer border definition and more tissue variation.
Clinical Images
Scan rapidly through lower extremity veins with excellent image clarity and reduced image noise with Dynamic Persistence.
Dynamic Persistence and Auto Flash Artifact Suppression reduce tissue motion and color Doppler artifact, such as the lower extremity vessels.
Greatly reduce flash artifact in highly pulsatile vessels, such as the hepatic veins with Auto Flash Artifact Suppression.
Touch interface allows users to more easily interact with the imaging parameters on the screen for increased workflow efficiency
Improve tissue differentiation and border detection, such as in this breast cyst, with Dynamic TCE™ tissue contrast enhancement technology.
Auto Flash Artifact Suppression allows you to scan rapidly without flash artifact, such as in this color Doppler of a thyroid nodule.
Auto Flash Artifact Suppression reduces color Doppler flash while simultaneously enhancing color sensitivity in the carotid artery.
Auto Flash Artifact Suppression reduces color Doppler flash while simultaneously enhancing color sensitivity in the carotid artery.
Motion correction technology improves diagnostic confidence while performing dynamic scans of joints in motion, such as this shoulder.
Motion correction technology improves diagnostic confidence while performing dynamic scans of joints in motion, such as this shoulder.
Technical Details
Features
Dynamic Persistence
Dynamic Persistence prevents ghosting when probe or patient motion is detected. It enhances color sensitivity and reduces B-mode noise when no motion is detected.
Auto Flash Color Artifact Suppression
Siemens proprietary and ground-breaking technology detects and prevents motion artifacts associated with probe and patient movement. It enhances color imaging sensitivity when no motion detected.
Enhanced Needle Visualization
Enhanced needle visualization allows for advanced image formation to improve the display of the needle. It utilizes unique Pixel former architecture for multiple needle interrogation angles without reducing frame rate. Proprietary blending algorithm and speckle filters deliver optimal needle visualization while maintaining image quality.
Clarify Vascular Enhancement (VE) Technology
Clarify™ VE technology is a real-time, adaptive, pixel-by pixel analysis implemented through a simple, time-saving user interface that provides multiple levels of clarification to optimize tissue contrast resolution and definition of both tissue and vessel walls according to user preference. Clarify VE technology is available on all curved and linear transducers.
syngo Arterial Health Package (AHP)
syngo® Arterial Health Package provides the clinician with the capability to measure Carotid Intima-Media Thickness (CIMT) and the option to reference normative tables that have been validated and published in peer-reviewed studies.1 The information is intended to provide a straightforward tool for communicating with patients the relative state of their cardiovascular system.
eSie Measure Workflow Acceleration Package
The eSie Measure™ workflow acceleration package is the first innovative application that provides semi-automated measurements for routine echo exams, improving efficiency and consistency for end users. Based on a knowledge base of over a thousand expert-traced datasets, the eSie Measure package improves accuracy and reproducibility.
