Arguably the most well-known ultrasound in the world, this is the original Voluson 730 that was featured on so many television shows and GE advertisements. It introduced 4D ³babyface" imaging to the world with the song ³The first time ever I saw your face". It became a hot topic and a very hot ultrasound, particularly when people discovered its user-friendly interface and that it was more than just a ³cool" medical device. It also has very good 2D imaging and harmonics, as well as PW Doppler, Color Doppler, and packages for vascular, fetal cardiac, urology, full gynecology, abdominal, and even cardiac (some have CW Doppler as an option).

This is GPS Medical's most popular system and we're well-known in the industry as the Voluson experts. The Voluson 730 ³standard", featured here, is the original unit that GE distributed. It has very good image quality, a customizable user interface, tissue harmonics imaging, a full range of applications and calculations (also customizable), DICOM compatibility, and a hard drive for image storage. The misconception here is that since it's the original, it's outdated. This is far from the truth as its 4D imaging is as good as most of its Œnew' competitor. Most practices that we sell this to are adding 4D to their lineup as a nicety to their patients, or are looking to do 4D imaging on their non-diagnostic scanning dates for a fee.
