F.A.Q.
Great question! The Philips IE33 is an ultrasound machine that specializes specifically in cardiac applications, while the IU22 is a shared service system that can project images for all sorts of applications. The IE33, though more limited, is one of the most popular ultrasound machines for cardiac ultrasound imaging available, despite being discontinued by Philips and replaced by the Epiq series.
Unfortunately, probably not. As the IE33 was discontinued by Philips and replaced with the Epiq 5 and Epiq 7 ultrasound machines, it's much easier and cheaper to find this machine in like-new condition. A.M.E. Ultrasounds (Absolute Medical Equipment) has several IE33's that are in pristine condition available for you!
The IE33 with the F-Cart is a more updated version of the regular IE33, and includes an upgraded power supply. Both are available for purchase - for more information, feel free to contact us!
The GE Logiq E9, the GE Vivid E9 and the Philips IU22 are all examples of similar premier ultrasound machines.
