This new system augments clinical utility while enhancing patient throughput."
The DP-50 system is highly suited for a wide array of clinical applications including fetal, abdominal, pediatric, small organ, neonatal/adult cephalic, musculo-skeletal, cardiac (pediatric) and peripheral vascular exams. It provides a wealth of advanced imaging features. These include dynamic beam formation, iBeam(TM) spatial compounding, iClear(TM) speckle reduction, tissue harmonic and tissue specific imaging.

The DP-50 is feature-rich while offering the image quality that customers would expect from Mindray."
Several of the features offered on the DP-50 system are found on premium systems. iZoom(TM) enables the user to view images from a longer distance by increasing the size of the clinical image display area on the screen and iTouch(TM) provides a single button image optimization. iStation(TM) offers onboard reporting while IMT gives the user auto-measurement of the carotid intimae-thickness. The system has an on-board imaging archive for more than 100,000 still images. With a 15-inch, high definition LCD tilt display, the battery life is approximately 120 minutes.
Advanced transducer technology supports optimized images for different body types and target organs. The DP-50 transducer family includes highly sensitive wideband transducers with up to four imaging frequencies in each transducer. Imaging can be done from two to ten MHz at up to a 140 degree scanning angle. The system is also upgradeable as new advances occur.
