Imaging System

Technical Data
Obtaining diagnostic
information more efficiently

Features
Stress Echo option assures rapid
acquisition, editing, and display
of full-resolution images in quad-
screen format, based on user-
selected protocols.
Dynamic Elevation Beamform-
ing and new HP transducers
produce exceptional 2-D images
throughout the field of view.
QuickTouch user interface
allows quick, consistent, and
reliable navigation between all
imaging modes and controls for
more efficient exams.
Digital Network Interface lets
you network your SONOS studies
to EnConcert. You can quickly
and easily capture and store
original quality images as true dig-
ital data.
Extended Definition Color
Flow displays exceptional filling
and physiologic flow presentation.

Doppler, which accurately mea-
sures range-specific, high-velocity
flow.
Continuous Loop Review
option allows review of 2-D and
color images at various speeds,
in single-, dual-, or quad-screen
format.
Digital Storage and Retrieval
option archives images on an
optical disk for high-capacity
storage and rapid access to
studies.
Lateral Gain Control adds an
additional level of flexibility to
image quality control and opti-
mizes detection of blood/tissue
interfaces.
Tilt-and-swivel monitor allows
easy viewing in a variety of
scanning environments.
Backlit control panel with
adjustable intensities permits
operation in dimly lit rooms.
Extended physio option pro-
