Aloka, Hitachi F31

High-performance ultrasound becomes affordable in a compact,
efficient system
Hitachi Aloka F31. Profiting from expertise gained from more than
60 years of experience. We have integrated our longstanding traditions
of reliability and high quality in the design and manufacture of
ultrasound products.

The Aloka F31 embodies these Japanese traditions combining quality and
affordability in a compact ultrasound platform. Its ergonomics ensure
efficient user workflow with a sympathetic design that
safeguards patients' confidence. The high performance capabilities and
advanced system features enable the Aloka F31 to meet the
requirements across a wide spectrum of clinical applications.

The flexible operating console. The adjustable monitor of
the Aloka F31 ultrasound platform combine to give a high degree of
ease of use, safety and mobility.

Features
The monitor tilts and swivels through 330°. Providing an optimal viewing
angle for all applications and when folded, improves visibility and
safety during transportation.

With a 90° right and left rotation of the operating console.
Height adjustment from as low as 70 cm, the operator comfort is
assured whatever the type of examination. The lightweight,
compact platform body combined with its large wheels and
a rear handle allow the operator to easily move the
Aloka F31 around the clinic or hospital.

The Aloka F31 console layout is very intuitive with commonly used control
buttons placed together to easily fit under the palm of your hand.
Single-action measurement activation speeds up examination times.

The B-mode brightness is adjustable with a single keystroke as is
automatic optimization of the spectral waveform. Based on the users'
previously demonstrated preferences. The Auto Angle Correct
function allows easy adjustments of beam-to-flow angle in
the PW Doppler mode to significantly improve measurement accuracy.

Powerful functions and advanced modalities supporting reliable imaging

The Hitachi Aloka F31 features advanced imaging functions such as
Broadband Harmonics (BbH), Adaptive Image Processing (AIP*), and
Spatial Compound Imaging (SCI*). Anatomy can be displayed with
outstanding sensitivity and resolution to reach a high level of
imaging excellence. The Free Angular M-mode (FAM") can be
implemented in real time or reconstructed from the cine memory.
Orientation at arbitrary angles allows for variation position.
Whereas blood flow mapping with eFLOW allows demonstration of
vascularity with high spatial resolution and minimal blooming.

With the Extended Field of View (EFV*) function on Hitachi Aloka F31,
large structures or pathologies can be viewed on a single screen.
Whether the body contour is linear or curved.

High Frame Rate Zoom enables enlargement of a region of interest while
maintaining a high frame rate on Hitachi Aloka F37.
The Dynamic Slow-motion Display (DSD) offers detailed observation of
fast moving structures such as the heart valves demonstrated with
the real-time image alongside a slow motion counterpart.

In addition, the real-time, simultaneous side-by-side display of the B-mode and Flow image enable easy anatomical understanding in
vascular examinations such as the carotid artery or lower extremities
(Dual Dynamic Display - DDD).
