Anesthesiology

The ACUSON Freestyle system enables you to perform ultrasound-guided nerve blocks and central line placements, enhancing efficiency and effectiveness across your regional anesthesia and vascular access procedures.

Interventional Radiology

With cable-free mobility and tools such as enhanced needle visualization, the ACUSON Freestyle system frees you to perform line placements and procedural guidance at the point of care.

MSK

Designed to bring maximized, high-quality visualization to MSK and pain-management ultrasound, the ACUSON Freestyle system promotes precise, needle-guided injections and quick diagnosis of soft tissue structures.

Technical Details

Freestyle ultrasound system technologies keyboard

The ACUSON Freestyle™ ultrasound system delivers advanced, wireless ultrasound transducer technologies to help you enhance clinical and operational efficiencies through reliable, high-quality imaging at the point of care.

Pixelformer™ Image Processing Architecture
The ACUSON Freestyle system uses computational focusing to bring each individual pixel into focus for a uniformly sharp view of the entire image—without the need to manually set or adjust focal zones. This imaging architecture also helps eliminate focal banding and decrease noise throughout the image, resulting in excellent detail resolution and image clarity for visualizing targeted anatomy.

Optimized Infection Control
The L13-5 linear, L8-3 linear, and C5-2 curvilinear array wireless transducers allow you to operate without concern for wire sterility and feature patented battery management with a unique, sealed design. This design allows the transducers to be fully submerged to aid in high level disinfection and sterilization1.

Freestyle system technologies and botulinum toxim injection

Enhanced Needle Visualization
The ACUSON Freestyle system delivers exceptional needle visibility to empower procedural guidance. It employs a sophisticated synthetic focusing technique designed to sharpen the display of needles without reducing the frame rate. Using diverse spatial compounding and steering, this technology helps deliver enhanced confidence during ultrasound-guided interventions.

ACUSON Freestyle Mobile Link App
The ACUSON Freestyle Mobile Link App 2 wirelessly connects your Windows® tablet and ACUSON Freestyle ultrasound system, allowing you to access, archive, and share ultrasound clips and images, as well as enter patient data. The app enables you to securely input worklist data from your tablet for faster, more efficient exams. It’s designed to work where you do—even away from your system—for a more flexible workflow experience.

Ultra-Wideband Radio
This state-of-the-art radio technology aids in delivering real-time, cable-free imaging through an exceptional 7.8 GHz ultra-wideband (UWB) radio. These speeds, up to 10x faster than a 4G smartphone, promote rapid data transmission and enable clear, seamless visualization to bring greater efficiency and procedural confidence to your clinical practice.

Bluetooth® Radio
Bluetooth technology not only powers wireless ultrasound transducers, it also delivers the tools that allow you to better integrate cable-free scanning into your practice, such as integrated controls designed for easy, single user operation and an internal alarm system for probe location security.
