SonoScape S60 Trolley Color Doppler Ultrasound System

The SonoScape S60 is a premium trolley-based color Doppler ultrasound system engineered for shared-service clinical imaging across fetal, abdominal, pediatric, small-organ, cephalic, trans-rectal, trans-vaginal, peripheral vascular, cerebral vascular, musculoskeletal, cardiac, trans-esophageal, laparoscopic, OB/GYN, and urology applications. It is built around SonoScape‘s Wis+ artificial intelligence platform, which uses deep-learning algorithms designed to actively adapt and analyze images for more efficient and precise ultrasound acquisition and interpretation.

The S60 Series is FDA-cleared under 510(k) K172082 (September 21, 2017) as a Class II ultrasonic pulsed Doppler imaging system (Product Code IYN, 21 CFR 892.1550), with the clearance explicitly covering the S60 Series Digital Color Doppler Ultrasound System. A subsequent clearance under K201059 (July 30, 2020) covers the S60 Elite Series/S70 Series, reflecting continued platform development within the same regulatory framework. The K172082 FDA summary states “No clinical data — Bench testing only”; substantial equivalence was supported by phantom studies, electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and acoustic output measurements against the predicate SonoScape S45 (K160283). No independent peer-reviewed clinical validation study specific to the S60 as a whole was identified in the public literature during preparation of this page; however, peer-reviewed clinical research using the S60 platform has been published for specific software functions, including the S-Fetus technique (1005 uncomplicated singleton pregnancies, 99.3% completion rate) and automated levator hiatus measurement in postpartum women. Availability, labeling, and cleared claims vary by market; confirm local registration and intended use before purchase.

The imaging chain supports B-mode (including Tissue Harmonic Imaging), M-mode, TDI, Color-Flow Doppler, Pulsed Wave Doppler, Continuous Wave Doppler, Power Doppler, Elastography, and 3D/4D imaging, using linear, convex, and phased-array transducers across a 1.0–25.0 MHz frequency range. The system is presented with a 13.3-inch quick-responsive touchscreen alongside a color LCD monitor, and includes wireless Wi-Fi, height adjustment, Sono-help tutorials, gel warmer, and Bluetooth remote control as workflow features.

Key Features & Benefits

Wis+ Artificial Intelligence Platform with Deep-Learning Algorithms

The Wis+ platform uses deep-learning algorithms designed to actively adapt and analyze images as examinations are performed. This architecture is positioned to support efficient workflow and consistent image acquisition across different users and clinical scenarios, within the physical limits of the installed probe set.

S-Fetus: Automated Obstetric Workflow with Peer-Reviewed Performance Data

S-Fetus is designed to simplify the standard obstetric ultrasound procedure by selecting the best section image and performing automatically required measurements with one touch, supporting fetal growth and development monitoring. A peer-reviewed study published in Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology evaluated S-Fetus on 1005 uncomplicated singleton pregnancies using the SonoScape S60 and 1–6 MHz transabdominal probes; 998 of 1005 cases (99.3%) successfully completed automated measurement, with high agreement between traditional and S-Fetus measurements and significantly shorter analysis times (SFA 21.62 s vs. TUT 52.21 s; SFM 2.78 s vs. TUT 35.70 s). SonoScape documentation positions S-Fetus as supporting 80% fewer keystrokes, 90% less time, and more than 95% accuracy.

Micro F and Bright Flow for Advanced Hemodynamic Visualization

Micro F is a novel Doppler technique designed for minute vessel visualization and slow-flow detection without contrast agent, with higher sensitivity, better spatial resolution, and minimal motion artifacts. Bright Flow adds a 3D-like appearance to 2D color Doppler imaging without requiring a volume transducer, strengthening vessel boundary definition and supporting identification of tiny blood flows. These are imaging capabilities—clinical value depends on proper probe selection and clinician review.

Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound and Smart 3D/4D

The S60 supports Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS) with Dynamic Acoustic Control technology designed to extend contrast agent duration and improve delayed-phase lesion perfusion observation, alongside quantification for perfusion dynamics assessment. Smart 3D/4D uses a high-density volume rendering engine with optimal signal processing and 3D rendering for detailed volumetric visualization, including fetal face and fallopian tube imaging.

Premium Transducer Portfolio: Composite Crystal, Single Crystal, and Volumetric Probes

The S60 supports new-generation premium transducers, including a composite crystal linear array, innovative single-crystal convex array, innovative single-crystal phased array, and a crafted volumetric abdominal probe. The scan converters and post-processing are refined for clarity, color, and contrast, and the compact, lightweight design supports natural hand-wrist alignment during scanning.

Ergonomic Design and Workflow Features

The S60 includes wireless Wi-Fi connection, height adjustment, Sono-help tutorials, a gel warmer, and a Bluetooth remote control, alongside a 13.3-inch quick-responsive touchscreen. Sono-Synch is an optional accessory for telemedicine and distance ultrasound education. These features are workflow tools—they support the clinician’s operation and do not constitute a diagnosis.
