Siemens Healthineers launched the ACUSON Redwood during the 4th National Congress of Vietnam Society of Ultrasound for Medicine held in the central coastal city of Da Nang last weekend.

ACUSON Redwood is a new ultrasound system built on the company’s platform and features advanced applications for greater clinical confidence, AI-powered tools for smart workflow and has shared cardiology features used by different hospital departments, the company said in a statement.

These features, along with a portable and lightweight design, offer clinicians an affordable and efficient high performing imaging solution, it said.

"The new ultrasound system is designed to deliver premium image quality, exceptional performance and greater workflow efficiency,” stated Pedro Vilaca, General Manager of Siemens Healthineers Vietnam said.

The ACUSON Redwood’s advanced applications, including Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS) and Shear wave Elastography, are available for the first time from the company in this segment and support precise lesion detection and characterisation as well as potentially reduces the need for invasive procedures. — VNS
