Designed to address today’s challenges in ultrasound imaging

Healthcare professionals today are facing challenges on many levels: demanding caseloads, an expanding diversity of patients, and increasing severity of chronic diseases. At the same time, clinicians are tasked to deliver the highest quality of care at the lowest possible costs.

Experts agree that a conventional one-size-fits-all approach to patient care falls short of addressing these challenges. What healthcare providers need today are advanced technologies and applications that intelligently respond to both patient- and user-specific needs. Tailoring diagnosis and therapies to each patient’s individual profile helps to improve clinical, financial and operational outcomes.

The ACUSON S Family of ultrasound systems were built to address today’s most difficult cases in ultrasound. They provide technologies and applications that offer personalized ultrasound solutions by delivering new levels of imaging performance, diagnostic confidence, and workflow efficiency.

Worldwide 1.9 billion adults are overweight* and 600 million are obese*.
Ultrasound professionals are faced with a patient population that is increasingly harder to scan. Imaging at greater depths is needed to provide higher levels of diagnostic confidence.

*World Health Organization (WHO), 2014

Globally, liver cirrhosis has increased by 20 percent in the last 10 years.**
Millions of people are at risk of developing liver disease from obesity, alcohol abuse, and Hepatitis, however, patients usually show no symptoms until the very late stages. Using ultrasounds as a non-invasive test for liver disease can help assess liver tissue stiffness within minutes.

**World Health Organization (WHO), 2010

Liver biopsies are costly and carry potential complications.

Non-invasive technologies, such as shear wave elastography, produce instant results and potentially reduce healthcare costs by avoiding possible complications from infections caused by interventional procedures.***

The unique SieStream HD architecture of the ACUSON S Family ultrasound machines works to provide new levels of diagnostic information. Complex processing algorithms double pixel density to produce unparalleled signal fidelity. From transducer to display, advanced HD technologies have been carefully optimized. The result: beautiful, uniform images down to the pixel level that deliver excellent images – including at depth – to advance your diagnostic confidence.

HD Transducer Technology
The unique, fine-pitched high-element density (HD) technology of ACUSON S Family HELX Evolution transducers delivers excellent image clarity and penetration. This improves exam workflow and imaging performance.

HD transducers feature innovative ergonomic palmar or ridged grips to promote fine motion control, supporting delicate hand movements and reducing operator fatigue.

High-density (HD) element transducers

• enable beam steering at greater angles to improve detail and contrast resolution
• achieve greater border definition
• improve image quality and color sensitivity

The powerful ultrasound engine that drives the ACUSON S Family ultrasound systems is the backbone for advanced clinical applications and technologies. They provide healthcare professionals with clinical information not available on conventional ultrasound systems.

HELX advanced applications allow users to personalize the diagnostic pathway to a patients’ individual condition. This unique patient-centric approach to diagnosis leverages the comprehensive advanced applications toolbox offered by the ACUSON S Family ultrasound systems – from quantification and characterization of tissue to interventional procedures.

Patient outcome and care are further enhanced with reproducible and quantifiable results.

Tissue characterization using shear wave elastography imaging can improve diagnostic results while reducing costs.

The ACUSON S2000 Automated Breast Volume Scanner (ABVS) helps to identify lesions efficiently. Its automated operation provides consistent, reproducible, operator-independent results with high-resolution full-field views of the entire breast.
