ACUSON X300 Ultrasound System

 ACUSON X300 Ultrasound System

GENERAL INFORMATION
The ultra-portable ACUSON X300™ ultrasound
system brings the benefits of migrating Siemens
core technologies to an entirely new level of
diagnostic performance and workflow efficiency
in the world of compact, mobile, color Doppler
ultrasound systems. The X300 system combines
best-in-class image quality and a robust set of
features to meet daily clinical needs. It enhances
diagnostic confidence with high quality color
and power Doppler, 2D imaging, steerable,
continuous wave and pulse-wave Doppler
capabilities. It also provides a pathway to seam-
lessly integrate future technology advancements.
