Samsung (News - Alert) NeuroLogica, a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd.,
announced that the Samsung RS85A ultrasound system has received FDA
510(k) clearance and will be unveiled at the American Institute of

"We are pleased to launch the RS85A, a new premium general imaging
ultrasound system with superior image quality and usability based on
Samsung's advanced ultrasound and radiology technologies," said Philip
Sullivan, President and CEO of Samsung NeuroLogica. "The RS85A embodies
Samsung's commitment to providing leading technologies to healthcare
providers by combining our key values of access, accuracy and
efficiency."
The release of the RS85A is the latest demonstration of Samsung's
leadership in ultrasound. It features an array of improvements,
including:
-
MV-Flow™: Allows for visualization of slow-flow micro
vascularized structures, which can be difficult to assess with
conventional power Doppler ultrasound. It also provides clinicians an
additional way to check lesions for indications of cancer or
inflammation.
-
S-Shearwave Imaging™: Provides new indicators for clinical
diagnosis by quantifying the elasticity of tissue or lesions via
shearwave elastography, which may help increase the accuracy of
diagnosis for breast and liver diseases.
-
CEUS+™: Diagnoses and characterizes lesion in the liver using
a contrast agent in adult and pediatric populations.
-
S-Fusion™: Enables simultaneous localization of a lesion using
real-time ultrasound in conjunction with other volumetric imaging
modalities such as an MRI or a CT, while expanding its capabilities to
the prostate gland for precise, targeted biopsy guidance.
The RS85A was also developed to help decrease user-fatigue and
repetitive motions with an enhanced monitor arm and increased range of
motion and tilt. These improvements allow the user to position the
monitor for optimal viewing and control. Additionally, multi-step
actions have been combined into a single step to help reduce keystrokes
and repetitive user interface interactions.
"Samsung has built innovative and cutting-edge diagnostic ultrasound
products for more than 30 years," said David Legg, Vice President of
Sales at Samsung NeuroLogica. "We are so confident that our RS85A
ultrasound system will perform reliably and be the system that you can
depend on for years to come, that we are proud to offer a 5-year
warranty standard, at no additional cost."
In addition to the introduction of the RS85A at AIUM 2018, Samsung will
showcase additional products in their comprehensive ultrasound
portfolio, including the WS80A with Elite, our premium women's health
ultrasound system, the HS60, HS40 and the HM70A with Plus.
