Samsung Electronics, announced the launch of ‘RS80A’, a premium ultrasound system designed for exceptional image quality and functions for increased diagnostic performance. The RS80A is Samsung Medison’s first product to target the radiology segment which is the largest portion in diagnostic imaging market.
Dinesh Lodha, VP – Health and Medical Equipment vertical, Samsung India Electronics said, “Samsung has forayed into the radiology market with the launch of our new ultrasound system – RS80A in India. The introduction of this premium system with significant new features and technological advancements will enable users to experience a new level of diagnostic quality and convenience.”
Samsung RS80A reportedly provides clinicians with superior ultrasound performance and features ideal solutions for general imaging. The new machine is equipped with a 23 inch HD LED Screen, 13.3 inch full function touch screen with tilt facility, five probe port and electronic console movement (up-down and sidewise). It also supports 10 ports Digital TGC which provides easy control with the help of reference image on the touch panel.
The RS80A’s S-Vision Architecture provides outstanding images through newly developed S-Vision Beamformer and Imaging Engine while the 23 inch LED monitor provides clearer and brighter display. These technologies ensure detailed resolution and tissue uniformity for all types of applications in radiology and general imaging. S-Vue Transducer gives broader bandwidth and higher sensitivity to enable good image quality at depth.
S-Detect uses the standardised Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) score for analysis and classification of targeted regions. S-Detect results in more effective diagnosis and saving time through simplified procedures. E-Breast and E-Thyroid are the latest breast and thyroid ElastoScan (Elastography) that makes it easier for users to distinguish benign from malignant masses through acquiring the strain ratio between the target and reference area faster. Advanced QuickScan allows automatic adjustments of imaging parameters, such as colour gain, location of the colour box and angle correction. It is equipped with 3D navigator and fewer keys on the control panel for ease of use and greater examination throughput. The keyboard is embedded into the touch screen. The device can remember user’s position and height of the control panel each time they run the system.
