WAYNE, NJ--(Marketwired - Apr 28, 2016) - Konica Minolta introduced today the latest version of the SONIMAGE HS1 compact ultrasound system, enabling improved image quality, streamlined workflow and new cardiac functionality for the point-of-care ultrasound market. The SONIMAGE HS1 delivers the performance of a high-end ultrasound in a hand-carried system making it an ideal point-of-care solution for rapid and confident evaluations at the bedside and in the exam room.
SONIMAGE HS1 now features Tissue Doppler Imaging, Anatomical M-Mode, a cardiac reporting package, and a sector probe to enable cardiac imaging capabilities. Additional enhancements include Simple Clear Flow (SCF), which detects low flow velocities in superficial and deeper structures, and the broadband frequency L18-4 linear probe with advanced harmonics that allows for improved resolution in deep structures.
