Siemens ACUSON Redwood Ultrasound System

The ACUSON Redwood ultrasound system is a premium ultrasound system that delivers detailed image quality, advanced technologies and greater workflow efficiency. It is highly flexible and portable, supporting Radiology, Cardiology, Obstetrics and Gynecology applications.

Detailed

From the improved sensitivity of the latest single-crystal transducer technology to the next generation of coherent image formation (CIF), along with Siemens Healthineers exclusive UltraArt Universal Image Processing, the ACUSON Redwood delivers imaging with confidence.

• Coherent Image Formation (CIF) for Harmonic Imaging: Using both phase and amplitude information to form an image enables high resolution and high frame rates when compared to conventional ultrasound systems.
• Color Flash Suppression Technology: Reduces color flash artifacts with no user interaction, improving color sensitivity and performance, even when a patient is actively breathing.

Family of InTune Transducers

Next-generation InTune transducer technology, with advanced materials, optimization and manufacturing, results in the highest signal fidelity throughout the entire imaging chain.

• Comprehensive suite of over 16 transducers supporting a diverse range of clinical applications.
• Complete Abdominal Solution – Delivers diagnostic quality 2D, color and Doppler imaging superficially, at depth and everywhere in between.
• Comprehensive Cardiac Solution – Addresses a full range of patient size, age and approaches.
• Compatibility and shared transducers with the ACUSON Sequoia ultrasound system – Increases value and cost-effectiveness.

Imaging and technologies

The system incorporates transducers and technologies such as: 9C3, Clarify vascular enhancement (VE), 10L4 with Auto Flash Artifact Suppression and Auto trace, 14L5, 7VC2 with UltraArt universal image processing, 18L6, as well as the eSie OB and eSie Follicle functions.

• Virtual Touch point shear wave elastography: One-touch technology for reproducible and reliable tissue stiffness information supporting liver assessment.
• Virtual Touch strain elastography: A simple and qualitative measure of lesion stiffness relative to the surrounding tissues.
• Contrast Pulse Sequencing (CPS) and flash sequencing: Enable greater diagnostic confidence in the characterization of focal liver lesions.
• Virtual Touch 2D Shear wave elastography (SWE): Imaging with a velocity map for clear delineation of the area of interest.
• 3D/4D with the 7VC2 transducer: Surface rendering method, as well as 3D endometrial multiplanar reconstruction (MPRs).
• Color and Spectral Doppler Tissue Imaging (DTI): Permits the assessment of myocardial motion using Doppler ultrasound.
• Left ventricular opacification (LVO): Enhanced cardiac visualization with improved signal-to-noise ratio and penetration, while lowering the MI to provide longer contrast duration.
• syngo VVI: A non-invasive method to assess myocardial motion and mechanics that quantifies Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS), Global Radial Strain (GRS) and Global Circumferential Strain (GCS).
• Comprehensive and flexible stress echo package with configurable protocols and wall-motion scoring features.

Advanced applications

The ACUSON Redwood system offers a comprehensive suite of advanced applications to meet the demand for early detection, diagnosis and timely treatment of a variety of chronic diseases.

• eSie Left Heart (AI-Powered): Identifies and automatically contours the left ventricle and left atrium, improving consistency and reproducibility of quantification.
• eSie Measure (AI-Powered): Workflow package that enables 1-click cardiac measurements for 2D, M-mode and Doppler, reducing keystrokes.
• eSie OB: Provides automated biometric measurements for obstetric scanning, reducing scan time and increasing exam consistency.
• eSie Follicle: Automates the measurements of follicles for fast and accurate assessment.

Efficient – Smart workflow

The ACUSON Redwood system was developed using input from 170 workshop sessions and 600 ultrasound users worldwide.

• 1-Click Registration: The correct transducer and exam type is automatically selected for each patient to streamline workflow.
• UltraArt real-time quad display: Select your personalized image preference from a real-time touch screen display.
• Artificial intelligence (AI) powered tools that may improve workflow and save examination time by removing manual processes and reducing repetitive routine measurements.
