Performance
|
Four technology cornerstones are the foundation of the Acuson Sequoia platform's unrivaled clinical performance. They work together to deliver a new level of diagnostic confidence in echocardiography and radiology. They streamline workflow and improve productivity to enable new clinical capabilities that expand the scope of ultrasound imaging. To understand them is to appreciate just how far the practice of ultrasound imaging has advanced through the Acuson Sequoia platform.
Acuson’s patented Coherent Imaging Technologies–Coherent Pulse Formation and Coherent Image Formation–represent a revolutionary breakthrough in the way ultrasound signals are transmitted, received and processed. Characterized by a dramatic improvement in dynamic range, spatial resolution and frame rates, coherent images provide an unprecedented amount of new information in every image—for every patient and every application. Coherent Pulse Formation exploits the Acuson Sequoia® platform’s sophisticated transmitter to precisely control both the phase and amplitude of the transmitted waveform. Through Precision Pulse Shaping, complex waveforms can be generated to optimize imaging performance in many clinical applications. Coherent Image Formation uses the Acuson Sequoia platform’s highly sensitive receiver and sophisticated imageformer to process both the phase and amplitude information in the received echo. Every image contains far more echo information than one derived from a traditional beamformer. Delivering a new level of productivity and workflow efficiency
