As easy as 1-2-3D
Hard working ultrasound capabilities – like 2D, Doppler, and 3D imaging – are just a keystroke away with a Voluson P8 system.
Voluson automation advances enable busy practices to maintain high quality while reducing the time needed to conduct, analyze, and report on exams:
Your first Voluson… years in the making

Intuitive, easy to use keyboard – Helps achieve uninterrupted scanning
Auto Optimization for 2D and Doppler – Helps enhance contrast resolution at the touch of a button
Auto focus for 2D – Provides automated positioning of the focal zone and allows the user to concentrate on scanning
Raw data – Conducts a virtual rescan of the patient post-exam to help increase productivity and improve diagnostic confidence
SonoRender Start for 3D – Helps enhance volume rendering with a keystroke
Reporting and archiving tools – Enables easy creation of a structured report from a selection of customizable templates, including 1st trimester, 2nd/3rd trimester, and gynecology exams. You can also export a report, including charts and images, in PDF format at the touch of a button.

Image quality you can rely on Voluson technology has established a high standard for 2D and 3D imaging – the P8 continues the tradition. You can count on exceptional images in all applications, from routine OB evaluations and gynecological studies to cardiac, abdominal, vascular, and small parts scanning.
Innovative GE tools include:
SRI (Speckle Reduction Imaging) – Helps improve visualization and contrast resolution by reducing intrinsic artifacts
HD-Zoom – Helps users localize regions of interest for closer study
CrossXBeamCRI* – Helps enhance tissue interfaces and border differentiation
Wide range of 2D and 3D probes are available for us in most applications: – Wide sector for endocavitary probes – Enables more anatomical information to be displayed in a single image versus the standard field of view

A system designed for ease of use and comfort
15-inch, flat-screen LCD monitor moves independently of the console
Wireless connectivity enables efficient transmission of reports and images
Transducer holder protects delicate probes while positioning them for user convenience
Simplified keyboard enables exams to be completed with fewer keystrokes and rotates to adjust to the user
Sleek, lightweight console with a small footprint to help optimize use of small spaces
Integrated peripherals including a DVR module help expand functionality
Keyboard is designed for ease of use and to help reduce user fatigue by helping to reduce reaching.

Trackball is surrounded by curved set keys that help users easily navigate through exams and make selections
