In LOGIQ 9, GE has developed advanced technology that vies you improved resolution and stunning image quality, leading to enhanced diagnostic capabilities that help you get more clinical information than ever before.

VOLUME ULTRASOUND

With the LOGIQ 9, you can acquire and construct volumetric images real-time with 4D transducers.  And, our leading edge 2D technology gives you the capability to reconstruct volumes from cine loops and manipulate data to view sagittal, transverse or coronal, as well as oblique planes – seeing anatomical relationships never before visualized.

Our latest volume enhancements deliver more:

  • Volume Calculation (VOCAL) automatically calculates volumes based on trackball tracing of the region of interest for evaluating irregular structures.
  • Inversion Mode makes it easier to visualize volumes compared to conventional ultrasound techniques by automatically providing surface renderings of hypoechoic structures, beneficial for the evaluation of contiguous multiple cysts or irregular fluid collection.
  • Volume Contrast Imaging (VCI-Static) delivers unmatched B-Mode contrast resolution and speckle suppression in each of the three cut planes, helpful in evaluating solid organs and cystic structures.

THE POWER OF VOLUME ULTRASOUND

Utilizing GE’s exclusive DualView mode allows the clinician to simultaneously display a 2D fundamental image of the breast on the left and with SRI-HD and CrossXBeam™ applied on the right side.  The combination of the two technologies allows better delineation of the speculations and margins of the mass.

The 4D16L transducer displays the anatomy in a real time multiplanar mode.  The coronal plane, not available with conventional imaging, is displayed on the bottom left of the image enabling better visualization of the ductal extension of this mass.  The curved rendering capability allows the operator to display a surface render customized specific to the anatomy.  A surface rendering can also be created, allowing better characterization of the architecture of this mass.  A volume calculation of the mass can be performed using VOCAL.

THE VIRTUAL RESCAN

GE’s exclusive TruScan™ architecture makes the virtual rescan possible.  TruScan allows raw image data to be stored early in the image chain for optimum flexibility during post processing and analysis.  With access to raw image data, you are able to compensate for variations in image acquisition by virtually rescanning the patient after they have left the exam room.

With raw data, the virtual rescan allows you to:

  • Optimize images acquired under difficult scanning conditions:
    • Add time gain controls
    • Modify B-Mode gain and dynamic range
    • Achieve one-touch Automatic Optimization
    • Change baseline shift, sweep speed and Doppler gain
  • Take measurements; add or edit annotations
  • Adjust time gain controls
  • Analyze and manipulate volume data
  • Construct 3D volume images from a cine loop

FEWER SPECKLES, MORE DEFINITION

High Definition Speckle Reduction Imaging (SRI-HD) heightens your visibility through improved, high-definition contrast resolution.  SRI-HD is a new adaptive, real-time software algorithm that suppresses speckle artifact while maintaining true tissue architecture.

UNCOMPROMISED PENETRATION AND RESOLUTION

Matrix array transducers with multiple rows of elements help you achieve uniform resolution throughout the field of view, which reduces volume averaging and improves overall image consistency in both near and far fields.  GE’s matrix technology diminishes the compromises between penetration and resolution.
