The 4D Localization System is a target localization platform based on detection of AC electromagnetic markers, called Beacon transponders. Beacon transponders send signals to the 4D localization system that generate objective location instructions to the radiation therapist to register the patients treatment target to isocenter prior to treatment.

The volume ultrasound system Voluson 730 with Tomographic Ultrasound Imaging (TUI) has been enhanced.
Similar to CT or MR, TUI allows clinicians to view up to nine parallel slices of an ultrasound volume dataset on one dynamic display. In addition, it provides greater information in both static 3-D and real-time 4-D views off of the volume dataset, applicable in particular to fetal heart exams where TUI, combined with Spatio-Temporal Image Correlation (STIC) technology, allows clinicians to acquire and then review a comprehensive exams, including fetal heart views.

SONOLINE 60 has been upgraded a notch to SONOLINE G60 S Ultrasound System Release 2006, which will be shipped to customers this March. SONOLINE G60 S makes gains on fourSight 4-D ultrasound technology by combining rapid volume acquisition and rendering rates with streamlined workflow, plus it is equipped with tools for analysis and quantification of obstetrical, gynecological and general imaging exams. The new P9-4 phased array transducer enhances neonatal and pediatric applications.

The Aplio XV now offers Expanded Differential Tissue Harmonics, a patented, proprietary harmonic technique especially helpful with larger, difficult to scan patients, on a broader range of transducers.
The Xario’s new 4-D imaging feature provides users with clear, continuously updated, moving images that allow real-time visualization of anatomy. Introduced at AIUM 2005, the Xario has already been upgraded to include features from Toshiba’s Aplio system, such as Advanced Dynamic Flow, Panoramic View and Advanced Contour Tracking for cardiology.

A newly designed endocavity needle guide fitting the E8C, E721, E8C-RS, IC5-9H, MTZ and MZ GE Healthcare transducers has been introduced. CIVCO’s Endocavity Needle Guidance Systems are designed to correspond with on-screen software guidelines, offering physicians real-time visualization for precise and accurate placement during procedures.

Centera Content Addressed (CAS) Storage which enhances CAS, includes Event-based Retention and Litigation Hold software to enable healthcare providers more control over information retention periods to provide stricter adherence to HIPAA compliance or governance requirements.

A Web-native IT solution, Sorian Community Access, provides single sign-on access to browser and non-browser-based applications designed to securely connect outside of the hospital with patients and physicians. It features a Web-based messaging system for communication and information exchange between hospitals, physician providers, ancillary providers and patients.

The CRystalView R200 was designed as a compact system small enough for desktop or mobile use.
It features a 50-plus plate-per-hour output for clinical settings, such as small office practices, clinics, hospitals and ERs.

The newest C-arm system, ddRFormula, features numerous technological innovations in a compact design. It incorporates the FP-5000 flat-panel detector and Automated Positioning System (APS), which streamlines the radiology workflow process by automating all positioning and image acquisition requirements.

Beekley SPOTS floral skin markers for mammography feature pretty, patient-friendly designs that add some soft touches to balance the clinical aspects of the exam.
