Acuson Sequoia 512 Ultrasound Machine

The Acuson Sequoia 512 is among the most well-known and most popular ultrasound systems on the market today. Its popularity comes from its outstanding image quality, quick data transfer to hard drive or DICOM network, and long-term history as a solid ultrasound machine. In particular, it's well known for having outstanding image quality in all modalities: cardiac, vascular, OB/GYN, general radiology and having high frame rates. It was one of the first ultrasounds to have a very good DICOM package in which it was quick to transfer to a hard drive or network, which made it a fantastic machine for high volume and critical environments. The Sequoia 512 is also a very stable system with a well-tested and stable operating system. In addition, later revisions (beyond revision 6.0) may include TEQ Tissue Equalization technology, which allows for immediate tissue and image optimization at the touch-of-a-button. This is especially helpful on difficult-to-image patients and on studies where time is not a luxury.
