Philips iU22

The Philips iU22 is a premium shared service ultrasound machine that provides industry-leading image quality for OB-GYN, vascular, cardiac, musculoskeletal, pediatric, and more modalities. The iU22 was launched in 2004 and was replaced by the Philips Epiq 5 ultrasound machine in 2014. However, due to the iU22 advanced features and more attractive price points, it remains a popular choice for physicians and sonographers.

The iU22 has an HD, high contrast, 20” LCD monitor with an articulating arm, a touchscreen interface, and an easily movable cart with locking wheels. The iU22 has excellent image quality and 4D imaging, making it the preferred machine for OB-GYN applications. While the Philips iU22 performs adequately with cardiac modalities, there is a better option. The Philips iE33 is a physically similar machine with cardiology-specific technologies and features and should be the preferred choice for those performing cardiac scans most of the time.
