Features & Benefits
InFocus Imaging
The ACUSON Sequoia system's powerful architecture eliminates the need for a conventional focal zone to create beautiful fully focused images. InFocus uses synthesized, retrospectively focused transmit beams throughout the field of view that focuses at all depths. More information is harvested from the usual transmit sequence, using massive overlapping multibeam groups rather than individual or close parallel beam lines as in conventional systems.
Custom Tissue Imaging
The ACUSON Sequoia speed of sound correction technology changes the speed of sound per the body type or pathology for improved focusing, spatial resolution and contrast resolution.
UltraArt Universal Image Processing
UltraArt is a novel approach to allow users to select their preferred image parameter by choosing from one of four imaging options displayed on the touch screen. UltraArt can work in both real time and post-processing to achieve the desired image without the need for changing multiple parameters.
Modality Compare
Modality compare allows the user to easily compare images from other imaging modalities for simultaneous viewing alongside real-time ultrasound images. This provides fast and easy comparison of previously identified organs or pathologies.
Color Technologies
Color Flash Suppression
The ACUSON Sequoia speed of sound correction technology changes the speed of sound per the body type or pathology for improved focusing, spatial resolution and contrast resolution.
Clarify Vascular Enhancement Technology
Clarify Vascular Enhancement Technology reduces artifacts frequently seen in vessels and fetal heart chambers, improves boundary detection in vessels, improves contrast resolution within an organ and between organs, and dramatically improves visualization of micro- and Microvasculature.
Slow Flow State
Slow flow employs sophisticated smart filters, which extract flow from clutter by motion filtering, adaptive signal enhancement and flash suppression. These smart filters can detect and label slower flow signals that would otherwise be mixed in with the clutter and excluded by conventional Doppler velocity cutoffs.
Dynamic MultiHertz Technology
A smart technology automation tool that automatically adjusts color frequency based on the users color box position.
InTune Transducer Technology
The ACUSON Sequoia system’s InTune transducer technology was developed to produce the best acoustics for each clinical use case. With advanced materials, simulation, manufacturing and testing, the acoustic matching between transducer and patient were optimized; this, together with the electrical signal path between transducer and system, results in the highest signal fidelity throughout.
Additionally, several of the ACUSON Sequoia system’s transducers feature a unique sensor technology called gesture-detection. This allows users to tap anywhere on the transducer to quickly activate and start scanning.

Strain
The extremely sensitive strain detectability of Strain imaging allows the use of natural compressions generated by a patient’s respirations or cardiac motion, versus cycles of up & down compression, to generate an elastogram of relative stiffness.
pSWE
Increased confidence in measurement accuracy is provided with a complete liver assessment report that includes the Interquartile Range (IQR) / Median Ratio, the recommended quality control measure for adequate technical quality.
2D SWE
In 2D SWE, high sampling density provides high spatial and stiffness resolution for imaging focal lesions and heterogenous tissue. Measurements can then be performed at precise locations to measure tissue stiffness in m/s or kPa.
Quality Map
The quality map allows immediate assessment of shear wave quality and improves diagnostic confidence.
Displacement Map
The displacement map provides further clinical information of tissue displacement from high to low.
