First handover of app-based VISIQ ultrasound in Chennai

BANGALORE, INDIA: Royal Philips has handed over its first VISIQ ultrasound machine in Chennai to Dr. Suresh, Mediscan Systems.

The product was first introduced to the India market during the Philips Innovation Summit in Bangalore, where it was developed.

VISIQ is the first ultrasound system from Philips which amalgamates various features such as high performance and simplicity into a compact single miniaturized solution. This compact Ultrasound machine allows clinicians to increase access to quality diagnostic scans for Ob/Gyn patients, especially in labor rooms and remote areas.

The new Philips VISIQ system is designed to provide crystal clear images - wherever and whenever care takes place. Philips has packed more than 30 years of ultrasound experience and its core imaging technology in the transducer that fits comfortably in your hand. VISIQ is a small lightweight system that provides image quality like a cart-based system and is easy to use.

This compact ultrasound device can be easily taken wherever care is needed. It wakes from sleep mode to scan-ready in seconds, and can scan continuously for 2.5 hours on a single battery charge. VISIQ delivers the same image quality of premium ultrasound system, allowing expectant parents to clearly see their unborn child's fingers and toes on the tablet's screen.
