Affiniti 30: A Perfect Balance Between Performance and Ease of Use
The Affiniti 30 is designed for healthcare professionals who need high-quality images, a system that is easy to use, reliable, and capable of handling high patient volumes. Its user-centric design maximizes diagnostic capabilities while reducing complexity and fatigue. Its compact format and mobile design allow the Affiniti 30 to adapt to any clinical environment, offering the flexibility essential to modern healthcare.
At the heart of the Affiniti 30, the focus is on diagnostic efficiency. The Next Gen AutoSCAN technology automatically adjusts image brightness, pixel by pixel, to ensure optimal uniformity, reducing the need for manual adjustments. By reducing user interactions by up to 54%, this innovation allows clinicians to focus on their patients rather than adjusting the system.
One of the standout features of the Affiniti 30 is Flow Viewer, a Philips color visualization tool that enhances vascular and fetal cardiac imaging. By offering a 3D rendering of flow data, Flow Viewer allows clinicians to visualize cardiac and vascular architecture with exceptional clarity, enhancing diagnostic accuracy. Available in all color imaging modes, this feature improves both the quality and aesthetics of color images.
The system also uses precision beamforming with a wide dynamic range, offering exceptional spatial and contrast resolution. This technology reduces artifacts, minimizes interference, and optimizes tissue uniformity, ensuring high-quality images even in complex cases. With over 7,500 parameters adjusted for each exam type, the Affiniti 30 provides consistent image quality for obstetrics, gynecology, and other specialties.
In a fast-paced medical environment, every minute counts. SmartExam, a guided workflow tool, significantly reduces keystrokes and exam time by up to 50%. This tool automatically plans and executes application protocols, ensuring consistent and efficient exams. From automatic annotations to mode changes, SmartExam simplifies complex workflows, enabling greater consistency between users while reducing the risk of errors or missed images.
Other automation tools, such as real-time iSCAN, continuously optimize 2D, 3D, and 4D images, accelerating the scanning process while ensuring high-quality results. These features save time, especially valuable in high-volume patient environments.
The Affiniti 30 is as comfortable as it is efficient. Its large 21.5-inch touchscreen tilts and pivots 180 degrees, allowing clinicians to view images from any angle, whether standing or sitting. The control panel is adjustable in height by up to 20.3 cm, further improving ergonomic comfort during long scanning sessions. Given that 80% of ultrasound clinicians suffer from work-related pain, this smart design reduces repetitive movements and helps prevent work-related injuries.
The Affiniti 30 is equipped with tools that go beyond conventional imaging. Strain elastography, for example, is particularly useful for breast and gynecological exams, providing highly sensitive data on tissue stiffness without the need for additional compression, thus improving exam consistency and reproducibility.
Additionally, the QLAB and iSlice applications allow for advanced image analysis and presentations, facilitating clinical understanding of complex conditions such as uterine anomalies.
The Philips Affiniti 30 ultrasound system offers a perfect balance between innovation, reliability, and ease of use. With its imaging capabilities, automation features, and ergonomic design, the Affiniti 30 helps clinicians make faster, more accurate diagnoses while reducing physical strain. This system is a comprehensive solution for modern healthcare environments, ensuring high performance and improved patient care, all within an economical framework.
