Fast facts

• Whizz image tuning
  Just touch the Whizz button on your console once. Without pressing it again, Whizz continuously and automatically optimizes the image, even as you move from one organ or structure to another.
  
• Scan Assistant
  Provide ultrasound sonographers with predefined standardized exam protocols that walk them through all steps of image acquisition, saving keystrokes, reducing stress and fatigue, and maximizing exam consistency.
  
• Whizz bladder
  Use the AutoBladder function within the Whizz feature to combine optimized ultrasound image quality with automated measurements.
  
• Breast Care
  Scan breasts with a systematic approach to ensure coverage of all segments; make assessments step by step. For serial exams, compare images to reassess quadrants previously flagged as risks.
  
• Auto EF
  Automatically track myocardial tissue deformation and calculate the left ventricular ejection fraction. The system makes the tracings from the apical four-chamber and apical two-chamber views and calculates the ejection fraction.
• Needle Recognition
  Perform accurate biopsies with technology that clarifies the precise location of the needle point.
• Voice comments
  Connect a microphone, touch a screen icon, and capture hand-free recorded voice comments that are overlaid on images and saved for playback later when reviewing the exam.
  
• Breast Productivity
  Assess breasts while scanning; describe structure characteristics including Bi-Rads in comments that feed directly into the report. Use the Auto Contour feature to easily measure structures.
  
• SonoBiometry
  Receive suggested caliper placements to perform standardized BPD, HC, AC, FL and HL fetal measurements.
• Insite Technology
  GE advanced remote service technology and remote monitoring diagnostics and repair; instantly connect your ultrasound machine with a GE service expert to resolve many issues remotely on the spot.
• Stress echo
  A template editor for myocardium stress testing. Evaluate heart segment function through myocardium stress scoring and comparison. Stress echo support enables wall motion scoring and automatic stress level labeling of measurements.
  
• Thyroid productivity
  Assess the thyroid while scanning; describe structure characteristics in comments that feed directly into the report.
  
• VOCAL
  Virtual organ computer-aided analysis. 3D tool that enables volume calculation of eccentrically shaped areas or complex anatomical structures.
  
• Tissue Doppler
  Acquire data in the background during regular 2D imaging.
• B-Flow and B-Flow color
  B-Flow is intended to provide a more intuitive representation of
  non-quantitative hemodynamics in vascular structures.
• Contrast* Enhancement Ultrasound (CEUS)
  Vascularization detection technique that uses the sound reflection properties of injected contrast agent.
• Tissue velocity imaging (TVI)
  Calculates and color-codes the velocities in tissues.
• 3D/4D
  Visualize all three image planes within a scan volume in real time; especially useful in OB examinations. 3D image rendering and display provide fast reconstruction of anatomical sweeps. 4D provides continuous, high-volume acquisition of 3D images. 4D adds the dimension of movement to a 3D image.
• Effective exam follow-up
  For follow-up exams, the Follow-up Tool automatically identifies the same ultrasound probe, preset, depth, gain and frequency settings as used in the prior scan. The current real-time ultrasound image displays side-by-side with the prior image for easy comparison.
• Elastography
  Shows the spacial distribution of tissue elasticity properties in a region of interest by estimating the strain before and after tissue distortion caused by external and internal forces. Can help detect abnormal tissues by assessing their stiffness in relation to surrounding tissue.
