Siemens introduces new versatile laptop ultrasound system

Siemens has unveiled a new ultrasound system which combines the flexibility, usability and mobility of a laptop, with the excellent image quality of a full conventional ultrasound system.

Designed to take ultrasound scans anywhere, the ACUSON P50 can easily be carried to locations within the hospital environment, such as cardiology, vascular and intensive care units and also to external locations such as sports fixtures.

The device weighs just five Kgs, runs as a Microsoft® Windows application on an Apple MacBook Pro notebook and is an advanced portable ultrasound system. A sliding control panel on the laptop enables clinicians to perform ultrasound exams, process images and generate reports. Workflow can be streamlined due to faster patient setup, quicker image review, immediate access to archived data and simple reporting.
