Benefits
ACUSON Origin may look similar to other ultrasound machines, but it’s a leap forward in some seemingly simple yet very important ways.

- ACUSON Origin leverages AI to provide more than 5600+ AI-powered measurements ― fueled by a database of 2 billion images across multiple modalities.
- 2D HeartAI automatically produces estimates of left ventricular volumes and GLS, both for contrast enhanced and non contrast enhanced acquisitions, achieving 98% correlation coefficient* with GLS estimates.2
- 4D HeartAI on both 3D TTE and TEE acquisitions achieves 96% accuracy when compared with estimates provided by three experienced readers.3

- Continuing decades of leadership in image innovation, superb image quality delivers superior clinical data acquisition in every scan.

- Workflow enhancements such as instant view classification that automatically recognizes your view and places color, pulsed and continuous Doppler over the appropriate anatomy.
- Quick to learn and highly intuitive to reduce learning curve, plus important ergonomic updates reduce strain and repetitive motion.
- The controls you use most often are positioned so they’re the easiest to reach.

This is truly revolutionary. Most of the time with a technology advancement, you can’t say that because it is just a new feature on an old system, but this is a completely new creature. For the first time, the machine knows what it is looking at, so it knows what the next three steps are to help you do them.
