Overview
Philips’ brochure covers the Affiniti 30 for obstetric exams at all gestational ages, including fetal imaging, and for gynaecology and breast work. The cart carries a 54.6 cm (21.5 in) monitor and a tablet-like touchscreen. Philips says the design is modular to allow rapid repair, and that the system uses nearly 40% less power than its predecessor, the HD15.
Philips says its Tissue Specific Presets adjust over 7500 parameters to suit the transducer to the exam type. Real-time iSCAN optimises gain and TGC continuously, and SmartExam guides the sonographer through the protocol. The brochure names the C6-2, C9-4v, L12-5, V6-2 and 3D9-3v transducers.
Philips’ current product page lists this system under a variant name, with tools such as Next Gen Auto Scan and Flow Viewer that the original brochure does not describe. The specifications here come from that original brochure, so we confirm the exact configuration and availability in every quotation.

Philips Affiniti 30: questions
What is the Philips Affiniti 30 used for?
Philips positions the Affiniti 30 for women’s health care. Its brochure covers obstetrics at all gestational ages, including fetal imaging, gynaecology, and breast imaging with strain elastography. The brochure does not list cardiology or vascular use for this system.
Is the Philips Affiniti 30 a portable ultrasound?
No. The Philips Affiniti 30 is a cart-based system weighing 83.5 kg (184 lb). Philips calls it one of the lightest in its class and describes it as easy to move, but it is not a hand-carried scanner.
How do Tissue Specific Presets work on the Philips Affiniti 30?
Philips says Tissue Specific Presets adjust over 7500 parameters to optimise the selected transducer for the exam type. Real-time iSCAN, which Philips also calls AutoSCAN, then adjusts gain and TGC continuously in 2D, 3D or 4D.
How much exam time does SmartExam save on the Affiniti 30?
Philips’ 2016 brochure states that SmartExam decreases exam time by 30–50% by planning and processing application protocols. That is Philips’ own figure for the Philips Affiniti 30, not a measurement made by Ultravision.
Does Ultravision supply the Philips Affiniti 30?
Ultravision Medical Equipment Trading in Dubai supplies Philips ultrasound systems, including the Affiniti 30, to clinics and hospitals in the UAE. We confirm availability and configuration before quoting and support the system with training, maintenance and probe repair. Call +971 4 294 9965.
