Nov. 25, 2012 08:00 AM
Today at RSNA 2012, GE Healthcare (NYSE: GE) is introducing the new
LOGIQ* E9 with XDclear, a new general imaging ultrasound system. Built
from the acclaimed LOGIQ E9 platform, new features on the company’s
premium product allow for increased penetration on large patients,
improved clarity and diagnostic confidence.1
“Because ultrasound imaging is one of the pillars for disease assessment
and determining treatment options - image quality, clinical capability
and procedure accuracy are paramount. Advancements in the new LOGIQ E9
with XDclear platform build upon what customers have come to expect from
GE Ultrasound. We’ve added innovative capabilities to help address the
ultrasound exam volume and imaging challenges that clinicians face every
day,” said Brian McEathron, General Manager of General Imaging
Ultrasound for GE Healthcare.
Enhanced Image Quality
Because of advances in acoustic engineering used in new XDclear
transducer technology, users of the new C1-6 and C2-9 transducers
experience increased penetration of 2-4 cm1 while
simultaneously experiencing high definition resolution throughout the
image.
On the new LOGIQ E9 with XDclear, the company has also added its
innovative B-Flow* imaging capability.
This GE imaging mode uses non-Doppler technology to display true
hemodynamics and enables direct visualization of blood flow without the
limitations of Doppler.
Enhanced workflow
In addition to a larger, adjustable monitor,1 a faster
computer1 and enhanced ergonomics, GE Healthcare has added
features including Compare Assistant plus Breast and Thyroid
Productivity Packages to help improve overall workflow.1
Compare Assistant helps streamline comparison exams while the
Productivity Packages help ease the burden of measurement-heavy studies.
Volume Navigation
The LOGIQ E9 with XDclear includes an expansion of Volume Navigation
capabilities with new tools and accessories such as automatic CT
registration.
