Sonosite 180 plus

SONOSITE 180 PLUS

The SonoSite® 180Plus provides a sensitive and accurate quantitative assessment of blood flow, enabling the user to measure velocities and identify flow characteristics in arteries and veins. Doppler signals are exceptionally clean enhancing diagnostic confidence for vascular exams. For quickly detecting blood flow in vessels, or for guiding the placement of a pulsed Doppler sample volume, color power Doppler is a very sensitive mode that is less angle-dependent than velocity-based color flow. Directional color power Doppler is also available on selected transducers. THI is an advanced technology never before available in this price range. In THI mode, the system processes echoes at the higher harmonic frequencies, resulting in images with reduced noise and clutter artifacts. This enhances image quality with finer dot size and improved tissue differentiation. SiteLink image manager software downloads and automatically stores high-resolutions to an intuitive file system. DICOM and PACS interface solutions available.

		Pulsed Wave Doppler. The pulsed wave Doppler of the 180PLUS™ system provides a sensitive and accurate quantitative assessment of blood fl ow, enabling the user to measure the velocity and fl ow characteristics in arteries and veins. Signals are exceptionally clear, enhancing diagnostic confi dence for vascular exams.
		Color Power Doppler. The 180PLUS system’s color power Doppler is ideal for quickly detecting blood fl ow in vessels or for guiding the placement of a pulsed wave Doppler sample volume. It is a very sensitive mode that is less angle-dependent than velocity-based color flow. Directional color power Doppler is also available on select transducers.
Tissue Harmonic Imaging. THI is an advanced technology never before available in this price range. In THI mode, the system processes echoes at higher harmonic frequencies, resulting in clearer images. This enhances image quality with finer pixel size and better tissue differenctiation.

Transducers. SonoSite offers a wide variety of lightweight, ergonomic and durable broadband transducers for the 180PLUS system. These transducers allow you to perform an array of diagnostic studies and interventional procedures including abdominal, vascular, breast, obstetrical, gynecological, pediatric/ neonatal, cardiac, prostate, musculoskeletal and intraoperative.
