GE Voluson S6 Ultrasound Machine
The GE Voluson S6 is a midrange 4D OB/GYN ultrasound machine that shares some transducers with the Voluson-i portable. It is the replacement for the Voluson 730 pro and is much smaller and lighter than any other Voluson console. This together with a battery allow it to easily be wheeled from room to room without rebooting. The Voluson S6 is a lower priced version of the S8 with less features and probes, but the two look nearly identical.

The Canon Aplio i700 is the entry level system among the Aplio i series. The Aplio i700 is a premium multi-purpose diagnostic ultrasound system that concentrated on continuously highlighting Canon’s clinical reputation and image quality in General Imaging. The Canon Aplio i700 with well-known Canon’s extensive selection of transducers excluding matrix transducers at the Aplio i900 and the Aplio i800 supports a wide range of clinical applications including obstetrics, abdominal, gynecology, pediatric, small organs, neonatal cephalic, adult cephalic, trans-rectal, trans-vaginal, MSK (conventional, superficial), urology, adult cardiac, pediatric cardiac, and peripheral vessel.
The Canon Aplio i700, apart from the Aplio Platinum series, integrates Canon’s new & fully digital transmission and reception processing technology, iBEAM digital architecture. The Canon Aplio i700 provides a number of high performance hardware such as a 23” wide LCD monitor, a fully customizable 12.1” LCD touchscreen, remotely operable wireless tablet console, 4 active probe ports. Due to the lack of the Intelligent Dynamic Micro Slice option, the Canon Aplio i700 does not support premium Matrix transducers. The Canon Aplio i700 provides the similar transducer line up like the Canon Aplio Platinum series. Nevertheless, its extensive selection of specialty transducers efficiently cover a high standard of demand in sophisticated General Imaging applications. Similar to the Canon Aplio i900 and the Aplio i800, the Aplio i700 is compact and light-weight, and easily maneuverable with over 36cm console height adjustment, lateral slide and a fully articulating monitor arm.
Remarkable new features of the Canon Aplio i800 that differentiate it from the Canon Aplio i700 are an intelligent Dynamic Micro Slice function for operating matrix transducers such as i8CX1, i18LX5, and i24LX8 and a Multiplexing function that is used to perform Quad View for CHI, Quad View for SWE, Shadow Glass, and Smart sensor 3D. The Multiplexing function is standard on the Aplio i800, but it is an option for the Aplio i700.
The Canon Aplio i700 also provides a wide range of Canon’s exclusive, clinically proven technologies as standard such as Precision Imaging (Speckle Reduction), ApliPure+ (Spatial Compounding), Advanced Dynamic FlowTM (ADF), Smart 3D, BEAM, Superb micro-vascular Imaging(SMI), Intelligent Dynamic Micro Slice, Multiplexing, and Volume Matrix. Other options include 2D Wall Motion Tracking, Mitral Valve Analysis, Contrast Imaging, 4D, Luminance (HDlive), Fly Thru, Elastography, Shear wave, Smart Fusion, MicroPure, and Panoramic View. The only two missing options between the Aplio i800 and the Aplio i700 are the intelligent Dynamic Micro Slice kit and the Multiplexing kit.
The Canon Nemio XG is an entry level General Imaging and OB/GYN ultrasound machine that replaces the ealier Nemio 30
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 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 Aplio 500 CV Platinum is the top-of-the-line cardiac ultrasound machine for Canon. It is powered by the Canon’s most advanced realtime application platform and offers raw data functionality. The Aplio 500 CV Platinum offers the widest range of powerful clinical tools for advanced visualization and quantification.
The Sonosite EDGE is a fifth generation portable PoC ultrasound machine from the brand that built that segment. The screen is noticeably larger than previous models(12.1″) and a solid aluminium core helps to protect the system with the legendary SonoSite rugged durability. A splash resistant silicone keyboard makes cleaning and disinfection that much easier. The Edge superscedes the older M-Turbo.
The Sonoscape S2 is a low-cost color Doppler system with a 15″LCD monitor with a long list of advanced features such as spacial compounding, speckle reduction, 3/4D function, and panoramic imaging. Unlike other compact systems, the system supports two active probe ports on the system. It looks like Medison R3, but it has a huge advantage thanks to the internal battery.
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 SonoSite M-Turbo improves upon the Micromaxx with even sharper imaging, while retaining the rugged portability SonoSite is famous for maintaining. It is the most popular compact PoC portable and offers many applications and procedures such as regional anesthesia, MSK, and EM which have been developed and expanded over what the Micromaxx offered.
The Canon Aplio 400 is a high-end system that is based on the same platform as the Aplio 500, the top model in Canon’s flagship Aplio Platinum series before the Aplio I series launched in 2016. The Canon Aplio 400 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 Aplio 400 Platinum with Canon’s well-known extensive selection of transducers supports a wide range of clinical applications including fetal, abdominal, intra-operative (abdominal), pediatric, small organs, trans-vaginal, trans-rectal, neonatal cephalic, adult cephalic, cardiac (both adult and pediatric), peripheral vascular, transesophageal, and musculo-skeletal (both conventional and superficial).
The Canon Aplio 400 Platinum has removed three of the upgradable options, Smart 3D, Speckle Reduction and Tissue Specific Optimization, from the Canon Aplio 500 Platinum. The standard package of the Canon Aplio 400 are as follows: 19-inch LCD monitor, DVD/CD drive, Precision imaging, Tissue Enhancement, Differential-THI, ApliPure+, Trapezoid Scan, Quick Scan, TDI, QSP, HPRF, Advanced Dynamic FlowTM(ADF), and DICOM Media Storage.
The Canon Aplio Platinum series was the top line products series before Canon launched the new Aplio i series in 2016. The Canon Aplio Platinum series share the same system architecture; therefore, all options could be used on the Aplio 300, 400, and 500. The user selectable key options are as follows: 4D for motor driven volume transducers and TEE transducer, Battery Kit, Smart Fusion, Smart Navigation Sensor, Smart Navigation, Wireless LAN, Stress Echo, 2D Wall Motion Tracking, CHI(Contrast Harmonic Imaging), CHI-Q, Parametric MFI, 4D STIC, Luminance, Fly Thru, Protocol Assistant, Super Micro Vascular Imaging (SMI), MicroPure, Elastography-FLR, Elastography, Shear Wave, Panoramic View, Vascular Index, Auto NT, and 1.5D Transducer support kit.
Apart from all the selectable options, the Canon Aplio Platinum series supports a total of 47 transducers including sector, convex, 4D volume, linear, micro convex, TEE, and Pencil transducers. Among those 47 transducers, the Canon Aplio Platinum series supports about 10 different intra-operative and biopsy enhancement transducers that improve clinical productivity in interventional Radiology.
