ATL/PHILIPS
Philips has come a
long way from a small, family-run company that started in the late
1800s. The company nearly went bankrupt a couple times in those early
days, back when its main products involved radios and electrical
lighting.
The past decade has seen a tremendous amount of consolidation in the ultrasound industry, including the acquisition of ATL Ultrasound by Philips Medical Systems. But just like many of the other acquisitions of small companies by one of the industry leaders, the ATL brand name is still well known and its products are still in wide use around the world. The most popular models produced by ATL are the HDI line of ultrasound machines, including the ATL HDI 1000,ATL HDI 3000 & ATL HDI 5000.

ALOKA
The Aloka name has a surprisingly long history in the ultrasound
industry that goes back all the way to 1950. In fact, Aloka can lay
claim to being the longest operating ultrasound company on the planet
with more than six decades in business, and still counting. Originally
founded as part of the Japan Radio Company and then split off as Medical
and Physical Institute Co. Ltd., there have obviously been major
changes in the systems produced by Aloka over the decades. The company
launched the first commercially available ultrasound system for
diagnostic use in 1960, and then in the 1970s took on the Aloka name,
which means "Ray of Hope".
SONOSITE
Even
though the SonoSite name is only about 15 years old, the company
has emerged as one of the leading manufacturers of portable ultrasound
equipment. SonoSite was originally spun off from ATL Ultrasound (which
was later acquired by Philips Healthcare) and the company introduced its
first line of ultrasound systems in the late 1990s. Now the SonoSite
name has become synonymous with portable ultrasound systems, and the
company's product like the Sono Site Nano Maxx, Sono Site M-Turbo and
Sono Site Micro maxx are in wide use around the world.
