The G50 system is a complete all-digital technology platform. It offers the power of individuality, allowing you to choose the customized imaging solution that fits your needs. Productivity tools such as the DIMAQ-IP integrated workstation with embedded DICOM connectivity, stress echo capability and innovative features like SieScape™ panoramic imaging can all be integrated seamlessly.
In addition to excellent imaging performance and a high level of standard features, the G50 system is unique in its individual scalability. Depending on your clinical needs, you can add individual features including additional array and sector transducer port options and an echocardiography package. The system can be customized with additional clinical and workflow functionality migrated from other Siemens ultrasound systems.
Siemens designed the G50 system with your workflow needs in mind. It supports confident decision making with exceptional image quality, highly intuitive operating principles and a classically comfortable user interface.
The newest advanced feature available on the G50 system is fourSight 4D ultrasound imaging technology:
- Automated volume data acquisition in 4D mode that is fully integrated in the clinician's daily workflow
- Simultaneous display of 2D image and 4D volumes give real-time feedback during acquisition
- The C6F3 4D transducer is ergonomically designed for exceptional user and patient comfort
- Cost effective output to CD of 3D volumes and clips
- EV8F5 4D transducer for excellent 2D, 3D and 4D imaging of early gestations and gynecological exams
- Measurement tools for distance and area in 3D MPR images and 3D rendered volume images
