The new advanced and scalable ultrasound platform includes FDA-approved Aplio i700 and Aplio i800 systems, which are suitable for shared service departments.
Aplio platform features iPerformance technologies that deliver enhanced processing power, enabling healthcare providers to capture more information.
The platform also includes iBeam technology that helps to increase penetration, spatial resolution and contrast resolution, in addition to reducing artifacts and clutter.
Aplio i800 provides advanced clinical applications, including an ultra-high frequency transducer. It enables clinicians to image superficial structures, and expand the use of diagnostic ultrasound.
Aplio i-series is said to provide intuitive ergonomics with iSense to enhance productivity during daily routine and complex exams with iSense.
