Philips Affiniti 70 Ultrasound Machine

Philips Affiniti 70 Ultrasound Machine

The Philips Affiniti 70 is a premium ultrasound system engineered to deliver powerful clinical performance without compromise. Designed for busy imaging environments, it combines advanced diagnostic capabilities with streamlined workflows to ensure quick, confident decisions across all major clinical segments. The Affiniti 70 is uniquely equipped with PureWave crystal technology, allowing you to achieve exceptional image clarity and penetration even in technically difficult cases, such as patients with obesity or liver disease.

Key Features

• PureWave Crystal Technology: Employs a manufacturing technique that creates a near-perfect atomic level arrangement for increased penetration and efficiency
• Precision Beamforming: Strengthens the power of PureWave to negate the traditional trade-off between penetration and resolution.
• Tissue Specific Presets (TSP): Automatically optimizes the transducer for specific exam types, producing excellent quality with little need for manual adjustment.
• Tissue Aberration Correction: Applies specific algorithms to account for the altered speed of sound through adipose layers, maintaining detail resolution in obese patients.
• Acoustic Efficiency: PureWave crystals transfer energy with up to 85% greater precision than conventional materials
• Ergonomic Design: Features lightweight transducers, superb balance, and highly flexible cables to enhance scanning comfort.
