Hitachi Medical Systems America

Hitachi Medical Systems America (Booth 2629) is highlighting its Oasis High-Field MR Solutions with an open magnet, along with two new products: the HI Vision 900 platform and the HI Vision 5500. The HI Vision 900 platform is targeted at the radiology market and the HI Vision 5500 is targeted more towards specialty areas such as brachytherapy, urology, surgery and interventional/biopsy. The High Field Echelon also has two new configurations, the XL and XLS, now giving facilities a choice.
