Siemens ACUSON S2000 is an ultrasound system in a new line from Siemens that features some pretty nifty applications that are still rarely, if ever, seen in other manufacturers' ultrasound systems:

  • Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse (ARFI) Imaging utilizes acoustic energy to compress tissue, providing qualitative and quantitative assessment of tissue stiffness
  • eSie Touch™ elasticity imaging calculates and displays relative tissue stiffness through gentle compression cycle
  • Cadence™ contrast pulse sequencing technology provides superior sensitivity and specificity to contrast agent signal for excellent border and lesion detection and characterization
  • Axius™ direct ultrasound research interface allows ccess to raw ultrasound data prior to the back-end system processing
  • Introducing the S Class. The ACUSON S2000™ ultrasound system is the first of the next generation of application-based ultrasound designed to deliver workflow efficiencies, innovative applications, and expanded clinical utilization. The ACUSON S2000 platform offers superb image quality, knowledge-based workflow, adaptive ergonomics and innovative applications.
