Increases color performance, sensitivity and frame rates.
What is Color HD?
100
Durability, Reliability, Ease of Use, Portability, Education
What are SonoSite's Pillars?
200
Increases the durability of the Edge
What is solid aluminum core and/or magnesium shell?
200
7.5 lbs or 3.4 kg
What is the weight of the Turbo with battery? Without the battery the Turbo weighs 6.7 lbs or 3.04 kg
200
Frequency setting used for deeper structures
What is PEN?
200
Enables the miniaturization of the ultrasound system, permits high performance ultrasound system on one circuit board. Reduces power comsumption.
What is ASIC chip (application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) microchip)?
200
2 hours
What is life of a new fully charged battery on the Edge and Mturbo?
300
New suite of imaging algorithms which produces clearer images at deeper depths available on the Edge
What is SonoHD2?
300
Internal Flash Memory Capacity of Mturbo
What is 8GB?
300
A term to describe a structure with no echoes within.
What is anechoic?
300
Achieves focusing by correctly aligning the returning signals. Improves axial, spatial and contrast resolution resulting in a more clear image.
What is Digital Beam Former?
300
The year SonoSite spun off as a separate public company.
What is 1998?
400
The limit of studies that can be stored on the Edge system.
What is 400?
400
12 seconds
What is the boot up time?
400
The fundamental ultrasound signal is transmitted at a broadband of low frequencies. The signal resonates off tissue in the body at twice the transmitted frequency. The higher frequency signals have only traveled one way and are virtually free of artifact. This technology produces an image with less haze and clutter.
What is THI (Tissue Harmonics Imaging)?
400
Enables video playback function on SonoSite ultrasound systems.
What is the Davinci Chip?
400
File types that can be exported from the Edge and Turbo.
What is jpeg, bitmap, dicom, MP4?
500
Allows the system to be easier to clean
What is sealed silicon keypad?
500
Imaging algorithm which increased the processing power 16 times compared to the MicroMaxx. Dramatically improves the contrast resolution and edge enhancement. Images contain more sharply defined structures and finer structure detail.
What is SonoHD?
500
A full bandwidth of frequencies are transmitted and received. This increases the utility of a transducer allowing it to be used on many different body types.
What is Broadband Imaging?
500
Optimizes multiple imaging parameters by simply changing the depth. True ease of use, allowing the clinician to spend more time with the patient and less time adjusting the ultrasound image.
What is SonoAdapt?
500
Operating system offered on our current product line which contributes to a fast boot up time.
