Siemens ACUSON Redwood

Siemens ACUSON Redwood — Premium Ultrasound System (Release 2.0)
The ACUSON Redwood ultrasound system from Siemens Healthineers is
a premium ultrasound system that delivers detailed image quality,
advanced technologies and greater workflow efficiency.
Designed to address the needs of an aging population and
the growing demand for early detection of chronic disease,
it supports Radiology, Cardiology, Obstetrics and Gynecology applications.
It is highly flexible and portable.

Detailed imaging
From the improved sensitivity of the latest InTune single-crystal
transducer technology to the next-generation coherent image formation (CIF)
beamformer, the ACUSON Redwood system delivers imaging that
inspires confidence.

Coherent Image Formation (CIF) for Harmonic Imaging: Uses both phase
and amplitude information to form an image, enabling high resolution
and high frame rates compared with conventional ultrasound systems.
UltraArt Universal Image Processing: Siemens Healthineers exclusive,
state-of-the-art speckle reduction algorithm.
UltraArt real-time quad display: Select your personalized image preference
from a real-time touch screen quad display.
Color Flash Suppression Technology: Reduces color flash artifacts
with no user interaction, improving color sensitivity and performance even
when a patient is actively breathing. It adjusts persistence relative to
operator motion, reducing extraneous color speckle.
Clarify Vascular Enhancement (VE): Uses power color Doppler amplitude
information superimposed on the 2D image to remove noise and
better delineate the lumen of blood vessels.
Auto Flash Artifact Suppression & Auto Trace: Help improve image quality
and reduce exam time.
Family of InTune transducers (single-crystal)
Next-generation InTune transducer technology with advanced materials,
optimization and manufacturing results in the highest signal fidelity
throughout the entire imaging chain.

Comprehensive suite of over 16 transducers supporting a diverse range
of clinical applications.
Complete Abdominal Solution: diagnostic-quality 2D, color and
Doppler imaging superficially, at depth and everywhere in between.
Comprehensive Cardiac Solution: addresses a full range of patient size,
age and approaches.
Compatibility and shared transducers with the ACUSON Sequoia system —
increases value and cost-effectiveness.
Representative transducers: 9C3 (abdomen), 10L4 (carotid/vascular),
14L5 (superficial/venous structures), 18L6 (high-resolution musculoskeletal,
breast), 7VC2 (obstetric 3D/4D, fetal heart).
Elastography
Point Shear Wave Elastography (pSWE): One-touch shear wave
elastography technology for reproducible, reliable and
detailed tissue stiffness information supporting liver assessment.
Virtual Touch 2D Shear Wave Elastography (2D-SWE): Provides a velocity map
with clear delineation of the area of interest (e.g. a liver mass)
to aid clinical diagnosis.
Virtual Touch Strain Elastography: A simple, qualitative measure of
lesion stiffness relative to the surrounding tissues.
Contrast imaging (CEUS)
Contrast Pulse Sequencing (CPS) & flash sequencing:
Enable greater diagnostic confidence in the characterization of focal liver lesions.
Left Ventricular Opacification (LVO): Contrast technology for
enhanced cardiac visualization; improves signal-to-noise ratio
and penetration while lowering the MI for longer contrast duration.
Cardiac suite
syngo VVI (Velocity Vector Imaging): A non-invasive method to
assess myocardial motion and mechanics that quantifies
Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS), Global Radial Strain (GRS)
and Global Circumferential Strain (GCS).
Doppler Tissue Imaging (DTI): Color and spectral tissue Doppler imaging
to assess myocardial motion.
Stress Echo: Comprehensive and flexible stress echo package
with configurable protocols and wall-motion scoring features.
eSie Left Heart (AI-Powered): Identifies and automatically contours the
left ventricle and left atrium, improving consistency and
reproducibility of quantification.
eSie Measure (AI-Powered): 1-click cardiac measurement workflow for 2D,
M-mode and Doppler (e.g. spectral PW Doppler of the left ventricular
outflow tract), minimizing keystrokes.
3D / 4D imaging
7VC2 transducer with 3D/4D functionality, featuring surface rendering
(e.g. the fetal face).
3D endometrial multiplanar reconstruction (MPRs) and volume to
enhance visualization of anatomical structures (e.g. uterus).
eSie tools & AI workflow (Efficient)
The ACUSON Redwood was developed with a global perspective,
drawing on input from 170 workshop sessions and 600 ultrasound users
worldwide. AI-powered tools remove manual processes and
reduce the burden of repetitive routine measurements.

1-Click Registration: Automatically selects the correct transducer and
exam type for each patient.
eSie OB: Automated biometric measurements for obstetric scanning,
reducing scan time and increasing consistency.
eSie Follicle: Automates follicle measurements for fast, accurate assessment.
eSie Measure & eSie Left Heart: One-click AI tools (see Cardiac suite).
Connectivity & support
Smart Remote Services (SRS), powered by eSieLink: Fast, secure data link to Siemens Healthineers experts — remote technical support (Remote Assist),
remote diagnose/repair and software updates to protect against cyber threats.
PEPConnect: A learning platform (e-learnings, webinars, job aids, videos,
virtual instructor-led events) with an individual profile and social learning groups.
teamplay Fleet: A digital health platform for fleet management 24/7
from any browser-capable device — monitor equipment status,
schedule upgrades/maintenance and access in-depth service reports.
Operating system & security
Windows 10 operating system with a state-of-the-art cybersecurity program
that protects data privacy and strengthens resiliency against external cyberattacks.
