Spire Portsmouth Hospital, part of Spire Healthcare, recently purchased a Philips ClearVue 550 ultrasound system. Rosey Bell Radiology Manager says,"It is exactly what we were looking for, with great image quality in a small package. We use the system mainly for obstetrics and the large, highly mobile screen makes it easy for patients to see what is going on. It is easy to move around and store, which is important to us as we use it in multiple clinics and most important of all, it is easy to use." Philips ClearVue 550 offers advances in imaging, ergonomics and workflow that provide excellent value in ultrasound imaging. New proprietary Active Array technology integrates key imaging technologies into the transducer for superb images in a lightweight, affordable system. In addition to Active Array technology, other core features include broadband beamforming and advanced signal processing that acquire and process the entire tissue signature for premium-class tissue differentiation across multiple patient types.
