Technical Description
The 2022 GE Voluson P8 is a lightweight, compact ultrasound system optimized primarily for OB/GYN applications, featuring a 17-inch high-resolution LCD LED flat panel display for clear imaging under various lighting conditions. It is built on the Voluson Core Architecture, delivering high-quality 2D, 3D, and 4D imaging with advanced technologies such as Coded Harmonic Imaging with Pulse Inversion, Speckle Reduction Imaging (SRI), and CrossXBeam spatial compounding to enhance contrast resolution and tissue differentiation. The system includes three active probe ports and supports a wide range of probes for abdominal, gynecological, vascular, pediatric, and cardiac applications. It incorporates automation tools like Auto Optimization for 2D and Doppler imaging, SonoBiometry, SonoNT/IT, SonoAVCfollicle, SonoL&D, and SonoRenderStart, which streamline workflow, reduce exam times, and improve measurement reproducibility.
The ergonomic console weighs approximately 143 lbs, with dimensions of about 16.5 inches wide, 26.4 to 30 inches deep, and 53 to 59 inches high, allowing easy mobility and placement in various clinical settings. It offers integrated 500 GB HD storage, multiple USB ports for peripheral connectivity, and features such as HD-Flow bi-directional Doppler for sensitive vascular assessment. The monitor's independent movement enhances operator comfort, and the system supports fast wake-up from sleep mode and optional battery operation, making it suitable for busy practices requiring efficient and reliable ultrasound diagnostics. Its expanded clinical applications include obstetrics, gynecology, small parts, vascular, pediatrics, cardiology, and urology, making the Voluson P8 a versatile and cost-effective tool for women's health and general imaging needs.
