Why O&G clinics shortlist Samsung

Women’s health is a core market for Samsung Medison, so O&G clinics in Malaysia often see a Samsung quote next to GE Voluson. Whatever the badge, an O&G system should be judged on early-pregnancy transvaginal images, the obstetric measurement package, Doppler and — if you need it — 3D/4D with a volume probe.

Demo checklist for a Samsung system

  • Scan early pregnancies transvaginally and later pregnancies abdominally on your own patients, not only a phantom.
  • If 3D/4D is quoted, check rendering speed and image quality with the volume probe actually being offered.
  • Check which fetal growth charts and reference tables are available, and whether you can choose the ones your clinic uses.
  • Review the report templates and how measurements flow into them.
  • List every probe by name, and the software options switched on.
  • Ask about probe warranty, local repair turnaround and applications training in your state.
  • Ask for the MDA registration number for the system and each probe.

Comparing Samsung fairly

Compare Samsung with GE, Philips, Mindray and the other brands at the same tier, with the same probes and software. For O&G work, run the same early-pregnancy and growth scans on each system on the same day, and compare reports as well as images.
