Finally, Speed\/Quality\/Affordability in a Cardiovascular Imaging Portable Ultrasound<\/h2>\n

You\u2019ve always had two choices when looking for a\u00a0true<\/em>\u00a0portable shared service ultrasound machine: Price or Performance.<\/p>\n

If you wanted something\u00a0that performed well in cardiac imaging, you had to pay a very high price tag\u2026 as in 40% higher than what you\u2019d pay for a solid non-cardiac portable ultrasound.<\/p>\n

But today I\u2019m talking about something that\u2019s changing all that\u2026 an affordable shared service ultrasound machine with\u00a0very good cardiac<\/em>\u00a0imaging\u2026 competing with the best portable machines out there.<\/p>\n

So today I\u2019m reviewing the new\u00a0Chison SonoBook 9.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

While this is a very good shared service ultrasound machine, the real breakthrough is that it\u2019s a much more affordable and powerful cardiovascular machine.<\/p>\n

In a portable cardiac machine, getting high frame rates, deep penetration, good color Doppler, and excellent image quality was an expensive venture. At $45,000 and up, mobile companies and those with realistic budgets simply couldn\u2019t afford these high end machines.<\/p>\n

Now, for a price similar to a new\u00a0GE Logiq e\u00a0you can get a good shared service ultrasound with high end cardiovascular. Here\u2019s my review of the SonoBook 9, more about its features after the video.<\/p>\n

Chison SonoBook 9 Feature Review<\/h3>\n

In addition to the technologies mentioned in the video, the SonoBook has some proprietary imaging technologies that are best explained here.<\/p>\n

Q-Beam<\/strong>\u00a0helps image quality and frame rates because it uses four (Quad) beams as opposed to a single ultrasound beam.<\/p>\n

Q-Flow<\/strong>\u00a0improves overall color sensitivity when necessary.<\/p>\n

X-Contrast<\/strong>\u00a0is something I found to help image quality as well. It changes the contrast of the tissue and has 3 settings, each of which gives a unique view of the tissue.<\/p>\n

Q-Image<\/strong>\u00a0is tissue optimization that has multiple settings for improving image quality in different types of tissue. This is in addition to its automatic image optimization feature.<\/p>\n

SonoBook User Experience<\/h3>\n

Most portable ultrasound machines today have a pretty good user interface. In general, they go with the \u201chome base\u201d design where functions are placed in groups according to common\/less common usage.<\/p>\n

The SonoBook 9 is among the better user interfaces for ergonomics. Additionally its system customization and setup are generally equal or better than other laptop-style portable ultrasounds in its class.<\/p>\n

The monitor also has an Ambient Light sensor, which will automatically dim or brighten the monitor depending on the lighting in the room. \u00a0The backlit keyboard is easy to see in lower light, and the trackball glows when you touch it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t\t\"Cost\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>
\n
\n\t

Overall, the Chison is an excellent addition to the ultrasound market. With its pricing, the SonoBook 9 has become the best value in shared service portable ultrasound machines.<\/p>\n
