Design Specifications

The LOGIQ V2 produces high quality images using CrossXBeam (Spatial Compounding), SRI HD (Speckle Reduction Imaging in High Definition), and Coded Harmonics. The system includes workflow features such as Raw Data for post-processing of images, Automatic Optimization, Virtual Convex, and B-Steer, which maneuvers the ultrasound beam for better visualization of the needle (available on linear probes). The system includes SonoBiometry software that allows for automatic measurement of key fetal biometry measurements. The system also includes ScanCoach, a reference tool that can be used during living imaging that displays reference images, animations, and schematics to guide the proper probe placement. The system can function via wall electrical supply or with a rechargeable battery. The battery life is 45 minutes and the charging time is 2.5 hours. The LOGIQ V2 system is compatible with 7 ultrasound probes that each have different frequency bandwidths and clinical applications. Proprietary software is included with the system and is available in 14 different languages. Key functionality of the software include operation system, database server, conversion reports into PDF format, data export and import with CD/DVD. Dimensions: 120x368x396mm; Weight: 6kg Temperature/humidity requirements :10-40°C/30-80% RH

Technical Support

Training is provided by a manufacturer representative. The extent of the training providing depends on the user's current knowledge of ultrasound.
