Vivid™ E9: GE Healthcare 4D Cardiovascular Ultrasound System for Precise and High-Performance Imaging
The Vivid™ E9 from GE Healthcare is a groundbreaking cardiovascular ultrasound system designed to deliver exceptional 4D images. This device is specifically developed for practitioners seeking an ergonomic solution for cardiac diagnostics. With its Accelerated Volume Architecture (AVA) platform, the Vivid™ E9 offers 8 times the processing power of traditional ultrasound machines, enabling the acquisition of full data volumes in one or multiple heartbeats. This system reduces artifacts while eliminating the need for ECG synchronization, making 4D imaging more accessible and smooth.
One of the standout features of the Vivid™ E9 is its ability to capture 4D volumes with exceptional precision and speed, providing detailed views of the entire heart, including hard-to-reach areas that are difficult to capture with traditional ultrasound. Whether for evaluating the left ventricle, heart valves, or endocardial walls, the Vivid™ E9 produces sharp images, even in complex conditions. With probes like the M5Sc-D and 4V-D, image quality remains consistent, with high resolution and clear definition.
Ease of use is also a priority with the Vivid™ E9. Its ergonomic interface includes a 17-inch LCD touchscreen and a secondary 10-inch LCD screen, allowing for smooth navigation between different views and acquisition modes. The lightweight and compact console is designed for easy mobility, making it ideal for use in the office or at the patient’s bedside. Additionally, the system offers adjustable ergonomics, enabling users to personalize the display angle and keyboard position for optimal comfort during exams.
The integration of Scan Assist and Scan Assist Pro in the Vivid™ E9 simplifies exam protocol management, whether for traditional ultrasound, cardiac, vascular, or abdominal exams. These workflow automation tools reduce the number of manual steps required, ensuring better reproducibility and consistent image acquisition. The Scan Assist Pro further customizes the settings to meet your specific needs while optimizing procedures for pharmacological or exercise stress tests.
The 4D quantification on the Vivid™ E9 includes powerful tools like 4D Auto LVQ, which uses a mesh-based surface tracking model to provide more reproducible results that are less susceptible to artifacts, even with irregular heart rhythms. This system calculates ejection fractions and volumes from pure 4D data. The 4D LV Mass tool calculates the left ventricular mass and LV mass index, providing essential information for accurate diagnostics.
The Vivid™ E9 is also compatible with a wide range of probes, including the M5S-D, 6S-D, 12S-D, and P2D, offering maximum flexibility to tailor the ultrasound to different patient types. This system is designed to provide a complete view of the heart, with real-time 4D views for a comprehensive stress exam. With 4D Stress, you can visualize axial and longitudinal slices of the entire ventricle under stress, which was previously impossible with traditional systems.
GE Healthcare’s XDclear™ technology, used in the M5Sc probe, ensures exceptional image quality for evaluating heart valves and endocardial contours. The Vivid™ E9 simplifies the daily work of cardiologists by combining cutting-edge technology with an intuitive interface and a seamless workflow, enhancing efficiency and productivity in the clinic or hospital. With superior image quality, improved ergonomics, and analytical tools, the Vivid™ E9 is the ultimate choice for healthcare professionals specializing in cardiology.
