Small on the outside, yet big on the inside, the system is designed to adapt to your everyday clinical and workflow challenges.
When form and function meet, the result is the ACUSON Juniper, an ultrasound system that is smaller, more powerful, and capable of accommodating virtually all patients.
Everything You Need, Nothing You Don’t Small on the outside, yet big on the inside. ACUSON Juniper is powered by a completely new platform, designed from the ground up to offer high-fidelity transmit and receive acoustic signals that greatly reduces noise and offers premium image quality and industry leading elasticity solutions.
Where form and function meet. Performance comes at no cost to the functional design of the system. ACUSON Juniper offers one of the smallest market footprints in its class, effortless maneuverability, 5 active transducer ports and a simple, intuitive and highly customizable control panel.
Control Panel Support greater workflow personalization with a simple, intuitive control panel and tiltable, highly customizable 13.3-inch touch screen. Able to be optimized for space availability, convenience, and user preference, the system’s 90° right and left rotation allows flexibility and improved transducer connector positioning
The Footprint ACUSON Juniper offers powerful capabilities in one of the industry’s smallest ultrasound systems. Able to fit in virtually any hospital room, the system is up to 36% smaller and weighs an average of 27% less than other systems in its class.
Design The control panel supports a clean and sterile environment with its customized disposable skin. Several cable hooks are available to support better cable management and efficiency
Body With 5 active transducer ports and 1 pencil port, the ACUSON Juniper is always ready to scan with little to no setup time. This system is designed for a stress-free environment with a sound pressure of only 28 decibels
The ACUSON Juniper delivers consistency and repeatability for your clinical environment by guiding the user on what views are required and what else they need to do to get a complete study. Reduce motion artifacts and noise while simultaneously enhancing color sensitivity with Dynamic Persistence and color Auto Flash Artifact Suppression technologies.
ColorImprove diagnostic confidence with exceptional color resolution and with improved physiological representation of color while reducing color flash artifact.
ApplicationsOffers the ability to measure tissue elasticity imaging with a click of a button using our best-in-class Virtual Touch quantification and eSie Touch elastography. The system helps to reduce operator variability, improves accuracy and gives greater consistency in reporting through several automated tools.
