The Philips Affiniti 70, is a high-end shared service ultrasound machine that was developed in 2014 from the premium Epiq 7. The Affiniti 70 looks nearly identical to the Epiq 7 and 5 and offers many of the same features like single crystal PureWave transducers. The Affiniti 70 also has many of the same technologies as the Epiq series, including the amazing QLAB onboard quantification set and ShareWave elastography. The Philips Affiniti 70 is unique in the high-end price category in offering ShearWave. As a shared service ultrasound machine the Affiniti 70 excels at cardiology as well as women’s health, vascular and radiology applications. Philips is most well known for its cardiac imaging superiority over other brands, but the Philips Affiniti 70 is also amazingly feature rich with excellent image quality at its price level. Doctors that like the Affiniti 70, but don’t need the PureWave transducers or ShearWave Elastography should consider the less expensive Affiniti 50 instead.

The Philips Epiq 5 is a premium shared service ultrasound machine from Philips. It offers Purewave single crystal probes, a compact and lightweight design and superior ergonomics and workflow. The Epiq 5 replaces the older Philips iU22 without xMatrix. The Epiq 5 has less probe options and features than the more expensive Epiq 7. All the Epiq and Affiniti ultrasound machines look visually very similar and use the same monitor and huge tablet like touchscreen for navigation.

The GE Logiq S8 is a high-end multi-purpose ultrasound machine designed for abdominal, vascular, breast, cardiac, small parts, 4D, obstetrics, gynecology, neonatal, pediatrics, urology and transcranial applications. The Logiq S8 is extremely light and compact and looks visually very similar to the Voluson S8, Voluson S6 and Logiq S7. The Logiq S8 is the replacement to the popular Logiq 7.
The Philips HD15 is a high-end ultrasound machine for shared service applications with the amazing Purewave single crystal probes. Reliable and high performance for nearly a decade the HD15 is still sought after even after production ended in 2015.
The Mindray M9 is the top-of-the-line portable ultrasound machine from Mindray and builds on the previous M7 and M5 portables. It is based on Mindary’s new generation platform and single crystal probes which allows for better penetration and higher resolution. The M9 is targeted at the portable high-end cardiac market with full cardiac features, transducers (including TEE), and full measurement packages. It can be used about 90 minutes with the built-in battery and with a trolley mounted battery pack it lasts over 3.5 hours.
The Canon Viamo is a high-end portable ultrasound machine for shared service application. It has the same imaging hardware and transducers as the high-end Aplio series. This gives the Viamo excellent image quality. Its fully programmable touch screen provides customizable access to imaging, quantification, and workflow functions.
The Canon Xario 100 Platinum is a compact and feature rich system that is positioned in the economy grade, but flexibly upgradable to the higher grade Xario 200 Platinum. Based on widely selectable options and transducers, the Canon Xario 100 Platinum is designed to support a full range of applications and can be used as a general-purpose system or a specialized system, depending on the installed software. The Canon Xario 100 Platinum with Canon’s well-known extensive selection of 28 transducers supports a wide range of clinical applications including fetal, abdominal, intra-operative(abdominal), laparoscopic, pediatric, small organs, neonatal cephalic, adult cephalic, trans-rectal, trans-vaginal, musculo-skeletal (conventional), musculo-skeletal (superficial), cardiac adult, cardiac pediatric, trans-esoph(cardiac) and peripheral vessel.
The Canon Xario 100 Platinum shares its platform with the Canon Xario 200 Platform. Both systems have the basic configuration as standard, but there are a number of selectable options that can extend the use of the system for many clinical applications. The standard package of the Canon Xario 100 Platinum are as follows: 19-inch LCD monitor, LCD touch screen, DVD/CD drive, Wide View, ApliPureTM, and B/W printer mounting brackets (side-access type).
The Canon Xario 200 and 100 Platinum originally developed from the Canon Xario XG, launched in 2007. With a couple of revisions and technology migration from Aplio series and also integrated full-digital transmission and reception processing technology, the Canon Xario 200 and 100 Platinum became more stable and reliable. The user selectable options of the Canon Xario 200 are as follows: CW, 4D, Gel warmer, MD-TEE hanger, Wireless LAN, Stress Echo, CHI(Contrast Harmonic Imaging), Panoramic View, Differential THI, Precision Plus, Dynamic FlowTM, Superb Micro Vascular Imaging, Protocol Assistant, Elastography, Elastography-FLR, FLEX-M, Precision Imaging, ApliPure plus, Tissue Specific Optimization, Auto NT, Smart 3D, and Luminance.
Apart from those all selectable options, the Canon Aplio 100 Platinum supports total 28 transducers (Some transducers required to integrate upgrade optional kits) including sector, convex, 4D volume, linear, micro convex, TEE, and Pencil transducers. Among those 28 transducers, the Canon Xario Platinum series support about 5 different intra-operative and biopsy enhancement transducers that can improve clinical productivity in interventional Radiology, and also are available motor-driven volume transducers for in-depth 3/4D Obstetrics and Gynecology applications.
The Supersonic Aixplorer is the premier Elastography system available in Ultrasound today. Though it was not the first brand to offer Elastography, the major brands are trying to catch up with it’s proprietary ShearWave technology. This technology delivers impeccable image quality and enables ultrafast imaging and Doppler. Though the Aixplorer is a very specialized machine, it can do other general imaging, but is not as flexible as a Philips iU22, or Logiq E9 which also try to compete in this segment.
The Alpinion E-CUBE 15 is positioned on top of alpinion product line as a flagship machine. As a well-balanced shared service system, it can support a board range of transducers to be used in many applications and its high linear performance with Needle Vision and Panoramic image greatly helps to increase quality of dianosis and work efficiency in MSK and regional anesthesia.
The SonoScape A6 is a low-cost black-and-white system.Two active probe ports are available and internal battery allos to scan for up to 3 hours on a full charge.
The SonoScape S8 is fully shared service with accepable image quality in a midrange portable ultrasound system. Unlike other portable midrange system, S8 support real time 4D, pediatric TEE, two active probe ports with battery operation.
The Mindray M7 is the best selling compact system from Mindray. This system break a bias of Chinese ultrasound systems with great performance, rich feature sets, and available on wide range of applications with numerous transducers. M turbo and Logiq e were chosen due to the brand awareness and a long history; however, with an excellent 2D image quality and color sensitivity including unique 3/4D function in this grade, it became globally a popular compact system.
The Canon Artida is a premium dedicated cardiac ultrasound machine with amazing cardiovascular image quality, ultrafast and straightforward 4D volume navigation. Advanced 3D wall motion tracking technology provides greater diagnostic safety and efficiency. The Artida’s unique 3D speckle tracking technology is the first to follow tissue movement in the 3D space in order to quantitatively assess all components of myocardial wall motion.
