Overview

Application training for the Philips Affiniti 50

KPI’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 Philips Affiniti 50 from KPI ultrasound.

Philips Affiniti 50 Service options

Free technical support is available from KPI during installation and over the course of the standard limited warranty. Technical support is available after the warranty period at an hourly cost per issue.

Philips Affiniti 50 Maintenance

KPI 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 (KPI recommends SonoWipes for this.) KPI recommends one PM visit (preventative maintenance) every year.

Revisions

Philips Affiniti 50 Revisions

Philips first launched the Affiniti 70 in 2014 as their new high-end shared service ultrasound machine, replacing the older HD15. As of 2016, the Affiniti 70 has not yet had a major revision, and only minor software updates have been released. The Affiniti series has had one of the most trouble-free launches in Philips history, being built from what was learned in the first year of fixes for the premium Epiq line.

Affiniti 50 Transducers: 4D & Matrix

The Philips Affiniti 50 supports four advanced single crystal PureWave transducers; the [ 1 – 5 MHz ] C5-1 convex, the [ 2 – 9 MHz ] C9-2 convex meant for pediatric work, the [ 3 – 10 MHz ] C10-3v endovaginal, and the [ 1 – 5 MHz ] S5-1 cardiac sector probe. The Affiniti 70 also supports two transesophegeal or TEE probes, the [ 3 – 7 MHz ] S7-3t pediatric and the [ 2 – 7 MHz ] X7-2t adult. The X7-2t is an xMatrix transducer but on the Affiniti 70 it only functions in 2D mode. The Epiq line and the CX50 however can use the full xPlane and 4D functions of the X7-2t. The Philips Affiniti 70 also has the [ 5 – 10 MHz ] biplane endocavitary probe that allows scanning in 2 planes without moving the transducer. Another specialty transducer is the [ 7 – 15 MHz ] L15-7io intraoperative linear, also known as a “hockey stick” probe for it’s distinctive shape that allows it to fit into tight surgical applications or small parts scanning.

Popular Philips Affiniti 50 Probes

The popular probes for the Affiniti 50 are several thousand dollars less expensive than the popular single crystal probes of the Affiniti 70. The [ 2 – 6 MHz ] C6-2 is the most popular convex probe for the Affiniti 50 while the [ 4 – 9 MHz ] C9-4v is the most popular endovaginal. The [ 4 – 12 MHz ] L12-4 is the most popular linear on the Affiniti 50 because it is affordable, and strong in both vascular and MSK imaging. For cardiac scanning the [ 2 – 4 MHz ] S4-2 sector probe is the most commonly selected.

Competitors

How the Affiniti 50 compares with other Philips systems

The Philips Affiniti 50 was launched in 2014 as the successor to the immensely popular HD11xe. The Affiniti 50 improves upon the HD11xe with a 21.5” monitor compared to 17”, a touchscreen for navigation, improved processor speed and more transducers. The Affiniti 50 was designed from the Epiq series and looks very similar to them, being only smaller in the size of the lower body of the ultrasound machine. The monitor, touchscreen and keyboard are identical to the Epiq line of systems. The Affiniti 70 is positioned just above the Affiniti 50 in price and includes Shearwave elastography, single crystal probes, and an articulated monitor arm. The ClearVue 850 is positioned just below the Affiniti 50 in price and features but uses a completely different probe set and was built from a completely different, more economical platform.

Philips Affiniti 70 vs Affiniti 50

The Affiniti 50 and 70 were launched at the same time and look virtually identical on the outside, with only a minor color difference in the main body. The Affiniti 70 is positioned just above the Affiniti 50 in price and sacrifices the PureWave transducers and ShearWave elastography, another difference is the L12-3 high quality linear transducer that is not available on Affiniti 50.If you are willing to pay for the more expensive single crystal probes or the shearwave elastography then the Affiniti 70 is an excellent deal, but if not then the Philips Affiniti 50 is the most feature-rich midrange ultrasound machine available.

Other brands competing with the Affiniti 50

The closest competitor to the Philips Affiniti 50 from GE would be the Logiq P6 premium, as both are shared service ultrasound machines capable of all applications. However the Voluson P8, and Vivid S5 would be similar competitors in women’s health, and cardiac respectively. The Affiniti 50 feels superior to the Logiq P6 in speed, resolution, monitor size and it has a touchscreen.The Affiniti 50 menus seem cleaner and more modern as well. The H60 would be the closest competitor from Samsung, though it’s strength is much more lopsided in 4D and women’s health with only minor support for cardiac and general imaging compared to the more robust Affiniti 50. Most importantly the Affinti 50 has noticeably better image quality than competing systems from other brands. The Siemens X300 PE offers a few probe choices such as ICE that are not available on the Affiniti 50, and offers the same breadth of applications support as the Affiniti 50, but does not have the touchscreen, large monitor or quite the same feature depth as the Affiniti 50.
