Siemens Healthineers plans to launch a new portable cardiovascular ultrasound system, Acuson Bonsai, at the upcoming American College of Cardiology (ACC) meeting in Orlando, FL.
Developed in partnership with Mindray Medical International, Acuson Bonsai features one-touch image optimization and advanced imaging capabilities specific to routine echocardiograms and cardiovascular workflows, according to the vendor.
In addition, Acuson Bonsai includes Siemens' Auto EF semiautomatic ejection fraction measurement tool, as well as its Auto IMT automatic intima-media thickness measurement capability. The system is also compatible with Siemens' transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) transducers.
