GE Voluson P6 Ultrasound Machine – Refurbished

Overview

Application training for the GE Voluson P6:

KPI Healthcare’s on-staff sonographer can provide onsite applications training or remote training via video conference at a set price plus travel costs. A pre-recorded video training course is included in the sale, lease or rental of the Voluson P6 from us during your initial set up.

GEVoluson P6 Service options:

Technical support is provided by KPI at no cost to you during installation and over the course of the standard limited warranty. Technical support is available after the warranty period at an hourly cost per case.

GE Voluson P6 Maintenance:

KPI Healthcare recommends the use of a surge protector along with a dedicated power outlet. Probes should be disinfected after every use with a disinfectant wipe proven not to damage the lens (We reccommend Sono Ultrasound Wipes for a non-damaging disinfectant) One PM visit (preventative maintenance) every year.

Review

GE Voluson P6 Review

The GE Voluson P6 shares the hardware and software architecture of the GE Voluson P8with the exception of HDlive, and includes associated transducers. The GE Voluson P6 is an excellent entry-point to the Voluson family and an affordable option to enjoy all benefits of the legacies it has built over decades.

The Voluson P6 was developed based on the Voluson S6 and S8 and E series and was introduced in the market in 2012. The imaging concept and design of the GE Voluson P6 is primarily focused and optimized for OB/GYN applications and is delivered through GE’s advanced imaging technologies like Coded Harmonic Imaging with Pulse Inversion technology, Speckle Reduction Imaging, and CrossXBeam (Compound Resolution Imaging). The GE Voluson P6 also provides an intuitive and easy-to-use keyboard from the Voluson family which allows for the immediate performance of everyday scanning.

One of the major strengths of the GE Voluson P6 is the integration of several of GE’s unique automation technologies. Auto Optimization for 2D and Doppler helps enhance contrast resolutions at the touch of a button. SonoBiometry, SonoNT/IT, SonoAVCfollicle, SonoL&D, and SonoRenderStart all improve the scanning and diagnosis efficiency of key exam operations by reducing the number of keystrokes needed and by enhancing the reproducibility of measurements.
