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 GE Logiq E9, is a premium shared service ultrasound machine capable of top of the line women’s health and 4D imaging along with top notch imaging for radiology, cardiac and vascular applications. GE’s breakthrough technology is the Logiq E9 with XDclear, which uses advanced transducers with a single crystal, acoustic amplification and a cooling technology to improve image quality especially at deeper penetration when image quality typically fades.
The GE healthcare Logiq E9 is perfect for a multi application clinic. Whereas the GE Vivid line specializes in cardiovascular applications and the GE Voluson line specializes in women’s health and 4D, the GE Logiq line can do both of these as well as radiology and general imaging. Medical professionals that will use the system exclusively for one or two applications should instead consider the GE Voluson E8 for OB/GYN and 4D or the GE Vivid E9 for a cardiac focus. The Logiq E9 has been in production since 2009 and is extremely stable and reliable even in older versions back to BT11 (also known as R3 or revision 3).
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.
