» Siemens Acuson P50 for Doctors
(November 2007)

The Acuson P50 from Siemens has specially designed features that
make it an awesome companion for a doctor. It comes with integrated
echocardiography software and is designed for mobile applications in
cardiology as well as vascular applications and use in the operating room
and anesthesiology departments. The P50 can be used as a standard
Internet-enabled PC that also runs common office applications. The system's
flexible architecture displays excellent ultrasound images and gives users a
number of tools for image post-processing. What makes the P50 a complete all
rounder is that besides performing complex tasks for the doctor, it allows
them to perform the basics as well; like surfing the net making power point
presentations and write emails.
The Acuson P50 weighs a bit more than 5 kg hence portable. When not
connected to the Internet, it has up to two hours of battery life, making it
fully equipped for emergency situations. The P50 is built off of an Apple
MacBook laptop with 2 GB RAM, a 160 GB hard disk and a 2.0GHz Intel
Dual-Core Pentium M processor. System delivery will begin in December 2007.
