GE Voluson i Ultrasound Machine

 Manufacture Description:

Extraordinary vision - Compact series

Extraordinary vision to care for your patients.

Your needs shape the future of ultrasound. It’s your feedback that drives every technological advancement that has made GE Healthcare’s Voluson® a leader in women’s health ultrasound. Working together, we continually evolve the Voluson family of compact ultrasound systems. It’s part of our commitment to provide you with ultrasound systems that help deliver extraordinary vision to help you provide extraordinary care for your patients.

That means making pivotal patient care decisions in every chapter of a woman’s life. Covering virtually all applications from adolescence, preconception and pregnancy to gynecology, breast and post menopausal care. Achieving excellent console-quality performance in an expert-level portable package that can easily accompany you to your patients. The ability to clearly see important clinical details from virtually any plane with advanced image clarity and diagnostic capabilities. Applying advanced technology to help enhance examination and diagnosis of the fetal heart. And the ability to analyze volume images in real time by utilizing innovative 3D and 4D technologies.

That’s the power of Voluson i. It's designed to be an emerging women's health volume compact system to give you the extraordinary vision needed to help you confidently scan women throughout all stages of their lives

Innovations in 2D and 3D image quality:

Speckle Reduction Imaging (SRI) and CrossXBeamCRI™ deliver advanced computational power, allowing for simultaneous processing of CrossXBeamCRI and SRI together – enabling added speckle reduction, contrast resolution and image clarity.

HD-Flow™ uses a bi-directional Doppler feature to help achieve a more sensitive vascular study and help reduce overwriting.

Volume Contrast Imaging (VCI) allows for image quality in either a single plane or all three planes of a volume acquisition

Innovations in volume imaging:

3D/4D Expert is an optional package that contains a suite of volume tools, including real-time 4D, static 3D, Tomographic Ultrasound Imaging (TUI) and Virtual Organ Computer-aided AnaLysis (VOCAL).

Tomographic Ultrasound Imaging (TUI) can make analysis and documentation of dynamic studies easier with a simultaneous view of multiple parallel slices of a volume data set (included in the 3D/4D Expert package).

Virtual Organ Computer-aided AnaLysis (VOCAL) is a semiautomated volume measurement tool that utilizes computer technology to provide accurate volume calculations (included in the 3D/4D Expert package).

Innovations in probe technology:

Extraordinary vision starts with advanced probe technology. The Voluson i supports a range of 2D and 3D/4D probes to meet your imaging needs, including convex, high-frequency linear, transvaginal and micro-convex probes.

Innovations in fetal heart imaging:

Spatio-Temporal Image Correlation (STIC) is a technology that was pioneered by Voluson engineers and has now migrated from Voluson consoles to the Voluson i. STIC captures a full virtual fetal heart cycle in real time, and the volume can be saved for offline analysis.

SonoVCADheart (Sonography-based Volume Computer Aided Display heart) is an automated proprietary tool that assists in generating standard views of a fetal heart from a four-chamber view and complies with the recommended standard examination of the fetal heart.

Innovations in automation:

SonoNT™ (Sonography-based Nuchal Translucency) – An exclusive new technology that provides semi-automatic, standardized measurements of the Nuchal Translucency as early as 11 weeks. This tool helps avoid the inter-and intraobserver variability that comes with manual measurements, as well as over-and underestimation. SonoNT helps provide you with the reproducibility you demand and can integrate easily into your workflow.

SonoVCADlabor (Sonography-based Volume Computer Aided Display labor) is a proprietary 3D automated tool that helps you to confidently measure fetal head progression, rotation and direction while automatically documenting the labor procedure with objective ultrasound and manual data in one easy report.

SonoAVCfollicle (Sonography-based Automated Volume Count follicle) automatically calculates the number and volume of hypoechoic structures within a user defined region of interest in a volume sweep, helping improve efficiency and workflow of follicular assessment.

SonoRender Start – New auto optimization tool expands into 3D examinations, helping make 3D rendering easier for all users.

Helping you improve your efficiency

Voluson Station features an advanced design that empowers you to maximize the use of your Voluson compact system. The Station design transforms your Voluson compact into a cart-based system. Whether you require the convenience of a portable, or the stability of a more stationary system – you can rely on the exceptional image quality you expect from a Voluson.

SmartNetwork connectivity allows the user to save different network profiles in an easy setup wherever Voluson i is being used. Wireless capabilities enable data transfer, including DICOM, to a workstation for storage and future analysis.

ViewPoint – our powerful ultrasound data and image management solution – combined with Voluson i makes it easy to archive images and volumes, create structured reports and more.

InSite™ ExC directly connects Voluson i to live clinical applications and technical support experts at GE Healthcare.
