Sonosite Heart Elite Ultrasound Machine

Sonosite Heart Elite Ultrasound Machine

Sonosite released SonoHeart Elite ultrasound machine with all-digital quality is capable to perform cardiovascular examinations for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients. The first all-digital, hand-carried ultrasound system with continuous wave (CW) Doppler and Extended Resolution Harmonic (ERH) Imaging. The new capabilities allow for quantification of blood flow in the heart with CW Doppler and enhanced two-dimensional image quality with ERH. Only has 5.7 pounds weighs, makes easy and can literally carry anywhere  for doctors and technicians, and it can run on either battery power or plugger in.

The SonoHeart Elite system includes the following new features:

• Continuous wave (CW) Doppler provides sensitive and accurate assessment of blood flow with a simple, intuitive user interface. The sensitivity and clear signal quality compares favorably to CW Doppler found on much larger, more expensive ultrasound systems.
• Extended Resolution Harmonics (ERH) provides clarity without sacrificing penetration or fine anatomic detail.

In addition to new features, the SonoHeart ELITE platform also provides enhancements to the 2D and color imaging. Higher frame rates, better signal to noise ratio, and improved filtering enable clinicians to achieve even better resolution of anatomy and pathology.
