NEWS BRIEF

Advanced Visualization Solutions today
Introducing Advanced Visualization Solutions (AVS): Uniting Ultrasound and Image Guided Therapies to transform image guidance across diverse care settings. Powered by advanced digital and AI technology, AVS supports precise diagnosis, treatment, intervention, and monitoring.

AVS provides a suite of advanced technologies intended to work together to enable real-time guidance for customers and clinicians in multiple clinical scenarios and settings in ways that may offer improved accuracy, reduced procedural risks, and enhanced patient care.

The Allia IGS Platform
Designed to be a trusted assistant for image guided therapies – the Allia Platform represents the culmination of a multi-year collaboration with interventionalists and surgeons aimed at enhancing user experience, improving workflow efficiency, and increasing the adoption of advanced image guidance in daily practice - all important factors in today’s constrained healthcare environment. To further advance interventional innovation in image guided therapy, GE HealthCare continues to expand its offerings of solutions that utilize digitization and artificial intelligence (AI) to help clinicians deliver precision care, including this year’s announcement of CleaReconDL. 1,2

CleaRecon DL, a deep learning technology designed to improve the quality of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images by bringing artificial intelligence (AI)-based reconstruction to the interventional suite. On Allia™ Image-Guided Solutions (IGS) Systems, CleaRecon DL is designed to use AI-based reconstruction to improve image quality by removing streaks without introducing additional artifacts, as well as improve CBCT analysis through clear images.

bkActiv and bk3000
bkActiv is a high-performance imaging system that allows for detailed, real-time surgical visualization and guidance over procedures supporting surgeons and clinicians in urology, neurosurgery, hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgeries, colorectal and pelvic floor surgeries, and laparoscopic surgeries.

bk3000 is designed to deliver exceptional images with high spatial, temporal and contrast resolution, allowing users to quickly identify lesions and perform targeted biopsies, or visualize pelvic floor anatomy, plan treatment, and evaluate outcomes.

LOGIQ™ Family (LOGIQ E10 Series, LOGIQ Fortis™, LOGIQ Totus™)
The elevated LOGIQ portfolio includes innovative new features and advanced artificial intelligence (AI) tools designed to address the evolving needs of healthcare providers with easy imaging, efficient workflow and Verisound™ digital and AI solutions, and collaboration tools. The Vscan Air CL handheld ultrasound can also be integrated with LOGIQ systems as a wireless dual-probe with curved and linear transducers for added flexibility.

The newest addition to the LOGIQ family, LOGIQ Totus is a multi-purpose, versatile ultrasound solution designed with an ergonomic-friendly design, advanced imaging quality and comprehensive specialty tools for improved workflow efficiency and diagnostic confidence in a variety of clinical environments.

OEC 3D with Lung and Spine Suites
GE HealthCare’s OEC 3D intraoperative mobile CBCT continues to demonstrate imaging excellence and versatility for a variety of cases ranging from neuro-spine and orthopedic trauma to interventional procedures, such as bronchoscopy.

This year, the company brings the following additions to the OEC C-arm portfolio:

OEC 3D Lung Suite: The OEC 3D enables clinicians to visualize both 2D and 3D images of the lung using a single mobile C-arm. For advanced imaging during endoscopy procedures, the OEC 3D Lung Suite includes:
  • Augmented Fluoroscopy overlay of 3D points of interest on live fluoroscopy images.
  • Adjustable motorized 3D scan to accommodate patient or equipment positions during a spin.
OEC 3D Spine Suite: Spine Suite is an OEC 3D software package with advanced tools to support surgical planning and confirmation during a variety of spine procedures.
For spinal anatomical review during a procedure, the OEC 3D Spine Suite option includes: 
  • Screw evaluation to detect and number screws.
  • Centerline/midline to trace spinal curvature.
  • Manual labeling of spinal vertebrae.
  • OEC Open interface to a verified navigation or robotics system.
Venue™ Family (Venue Sprint™, Venue™, Venue Go™)
Venue Sprint™ a portable system in a tablet form, and the latest Venue family solution offers maximum portability and advanced capabilities for high-quality scanning and support at the point of care. Venue family point-of-care ultrasound systems, including the Venue Sprint, Venue and Venue Go, now offer wireless probe connectivity with integration of Vscan Air probes, supplementary advanced clinical tools and the latest ViewPoint™ 6 updates for increased efficiency and optimized workflow.

Venue family ultrasound systems have access to Caption Guidance™, which provides turn-by-turn, on-screen guidance to help capture diagnostic-quality cardiac ultrasound images. In addition, Venue ultrasound systems feature optional clinical tools to assist users of varying experience levels to conduct patient exams.

The elevated Venue family is designed to empower clinicians to deliver care wherever it is needed with the simplicity, flexibility and support required to make confident clinical decisions.

Verisound: Digital & AI Ultrasound Solutions
Verisound is a suite of ultrasound technologies that brings together GE HealthCare’s existing ultrasound AI and digital workflow solutions as part of a unified platform designed to help clinicians work smarter and more efficiently. Verisound™ Fleet empowers clinical and healthcare technology teams to remotely view, back up, and deploy device configurations.

Versana Premier™
Versana Premier is a multi-purpose, budget-friendly ultrasound system equipped with automation and AI-enabled productivity tools to improve workflow and clinical features designed to enhance clinical efficiency and accuracy. This easy-to-use, easy-to-learn, easy-to-diagnose ultrasound system empowers clinicians to deliver high-quality care and accurately make decisions to reach a diagnosis with the greatest of ease. The system includes Digital Expert Connect, allowing users to easily collaborate virtually with colleagues across their network.

ViewPoint 6
ViewPoint 6 addresses the challenge of a demanding workflow, streamlining the workflow by distributing data directly from the ultrasound system to populate reports, giving clinicians more time with their patients.

Vscan Air™
GE HealthCare's Vscan Air family offers two flexible, wireless, dual-probe handheld ultrasound options: the Vscan Air SL and the Vscan Air CL. The Vscan Air family provides a flexible, lightweight, wireless ultrasound system that delivers crystal clear images at the point of care to help accelerate diagnoses and treatment decisions.

For added support, Vscan Air SL handheld systems have access to Caption AI, which offers real-time, step-by-step guidance to capture diagnostic-quality images and automated ejection fraction estimation, an important measure of heart function, to help inform clinical decisions across cardiac settings.

Vscan Air + Digital Tools offers key tools to securely store and share images in the cloud. Starting at RSNA, GE HealthCare will launch a new trial of Digital Tools for both existing and new Vscan Air users.
