Scroll below for a detailed overview of the Aplio i800, including specs and a review. Or contact Ultrasound Supply to request more information about or purchase this system.

The Canon Aplio 500 was the top model in Canon’s flagship Aplio Platinum series. Thanks to the launch of new Aplio i series in 2016, the Canon Aplio 500 was dethroned as Canon’s premium flagship system. Although the Aplio 500 is not at the top anymore, it is still a great system. The Canon Aplio 500 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 500 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 500 Platinum is the most feature rich system among the Aplio Platinum series. The standard package of the Canon Aplio 500 includes: 19-inch LCD monitor, DVD/CD drive, Precision imaging, Tissue Enhancement, Differential-THI, ApliPure+, Speckle Reduction, Tissue Specific Optimization, Trapezoid Scan, Quick Scan, TDI, QSP, HPRF, Advanced Dynamic FlowTM(ADF), Smart 3D, 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 shares the same system architecture; therefore, all options could be used to 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 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.

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 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 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 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 Mindray DC-40 is a value-range Color-Doppler Ultrasound System which specializes in shared-service applications, especially in Primary OBG Care. The Mindray DC-40 is also designed to cover a wide range of applications including abdominal, pediatric, small organs, neonatal cephalic, adult cephalic, trans-rectal, trans-vaginal, MSK (conventional, superficial), urology, adult cardiac, and peripheral vessel.

The Mindray DC-40 integrates their latest 64-channel Imaging Engine, which provides support for high-performance hardware such as a 17″ LED monitor (Available up to 19″), an angle-adjustable 10.4″ LED touchscreen, 4 active probe ports, 1TB hard disk, a gel warmer, endocavity transducer holder, 5 cost-effective transducers (3C5A, 7L4A, L7-3, V11-3, P4-2), 1 high density and high frequency linear array transducer (L14-6NE), and 1 functional volume transducer. These transducers effectively cover a wide array of clinical requirements, thanks to their low-to-high bandwidth frequency coverage.

The Mindray DC-40 is an entry level ultrasound, so decreasing the ultrasound learning curve is key. iScanHelper is a tutorial software for a novice user to get used to ultrasound scanning. iScanHelper includes anatomical illustrations, standard ultrasound images, scanning reference pictures and tips on scanning skillfully. The Raw Data function, a physician can use the stored image and cine for re-preprocessing such as optimization, measurement, and adding comments.

The Mindray DC-40 has rich functionality at its price point and product positioning. As a fully- functional ultrasound solution, the Mindray DC-40 provides strong GI features: Natural Touch Elastography for stiffness evaluation, iScape for panoramic imaging with power mode, IMT for Auto IMT measurement, and Smart Bladder for auto liquid volume measurement. The Mindray DC-40 is more powerful in features for primary OBG care with conventional 4D, iLive function for an amazing, realistic view of the fetus, iPage for volume data with multiple parallel 2D images, Smart OB for auto measurement of the most frequently used items, dedicated IVF package and Smart NT for auto measure of NT. The Mindray DC-40 is also a practical adult cardiac solution with CW mode, complete TDI modes and TDI quantification.

For a competitive primary OBG care solution, following the OB/GYN options on the Mindray DC-40 are critical. iLive, the same as Samsung’s Realistic Vue and GE’s HDlive, is a virtualized rendering tool to obtain an amazingly realistic view of the fetus; and the angle of the light source can be adjusted freely. The iPage function provides multiple slices of 2D images from a 3D volume image, similar to CT or MR Imaging. The Smart OB is an auto measurement tool that provides the 5 most frequently used measurements of OB such as BPD/HC/FL/AC/OFD. Lastly, Smart NT is another automatic measurement function that measures and displays max NT result by the industry standard method of “in to in.”

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 E-CUBE 9 is built around ALPINION’s proprietary single crystal transducer technology that delivers superior image detail and resolution together with deeper penetration. Other migrated features for enhanced clinical efficiency include superior ergonomics, an integrated gel warmer, and protective transducer port covers.

The M5 is the first compact system from Mindary released in 2008. It has become one of most recommended compact ultrasound options in small practices thanks to the great cost-effectiveness.  Especailly, iClear(Mindray auto image optimization function) improves the easy of use and helps a navice user to improve his/her diagnostic capability  in shortime. Since its launch, lots of upper grade technologies have migrated.

The Canon Nemio XG is an entry level General Imaging and OB/GYN ultrasound machine that replaces the ealier Nemio 30
