Vivid E9 with XDclear Cardiovascular Ultrasound System

Profile
Extraordinary capabilities for routine day-to-day imaging – from acquisition through navigation and quantification, to archiving.

The Vivid* E9 is GE Healthcare’s first cardiovascular ultrasound system built specifically for 4D imaging — from ergonomics and image acquisition to data management and archiving. Vivid E9 provides the tools to help streamline your workflow, enhance productivity, and provide the data you need for confident diagnoses. OurVivid E9 also provides exceptional 2D imaging with equal power, precision, and agility.Raw Data Format

The GE Vivid product line has always acquired and stored its data in a specific raw data format, which enables onboard as well as after the fact post processing capabilities. This flexible and innovative format and storage of pre scan converted data has enabled development of utilities with high clinical value.

This has resulted in an enhanced ability to perform additional advanced algorithms for all of the steps in the data processing chain, culminating in the release of the Vivid E9 with XDclear*.

2D Image Quality 
Designed with GE’s proprietary XDclear* technology, the M5Sc transducer delivers excellent endocardial definition and texture. Together with controls like UD Clarity and HD imaging, it helps provide crisp valves and borders across a wide range of patients.

Automated Function Imaging (AFI)
This software tool assesses and quantifies left ventricular wall motion at rest. It calculates a large set of parameters to describe the function of the left ventricular walls. AFI specifically calculates peaksystolic longitudinal strain (both segmental and global) and presents the results as parametric images.As part of its healthymagination validation, a study has shown that AFI offers potential in predicting mortality in patients with suspected LV impairment compared to Ejection Fraction and Wall Motion1.

Pediatric imaging
Two dedicated pediatric transducers, the 6S-D and 12S-D, cover patients ranging from neonates up to children weighing 16-18 kg. Vivid E9 with XDclear continues to provide the same exceptional 2D imaging power, precision and agility, along with color flow and Doppler. The new imaging presets for these transducers enhance low-level signal display in 2D and M-Mode. They combine high color sensitivity with high frame rates, by leveraging parallel beam forming power. The result is enhanceddifferentiation of small and fast moving structures and flows

Depth Illumination
GE has standardized Depth Illumination on this platform to enhance communication to non-echo experts.  The new depth color map helps
visualization when the object is illuminated by an imaginary light source, casting a shadow enhancing depth/distance perception.  This can be very helpful for an interventional device/catheter.

Polar Vision
Precise, efficient communication between the echocardiographer and the surgeon in the OR or the interventionalist in the cath lab is a prerequisite for a smooth procedure in a crowded and stressful environment. There is a continuing need for enhancements in 4D visualization of structures.

Vivid E9* with XDclear* helps provide detailed 
anatomical insight. It delivers extraordinarily clear depth perception through an innovative visualization technique called Polar Vision,  that combines polarized stereo with depth rendering on a dedicated 3D monitor.

The Polar Vision option is designed to enhance communication in the cath lab and OR, introducing a new stereo vision technology combining polarized stereo with depth rendering displayed on adedicated 3D monitor.

MV Assessment: And now, with the TomTec** MV Assessment tool on board the Vivid E9 in addition to the EchoPAC*, we provide comprehensive visual and quantitative assessment for structural heart repairs in the echo lab or interventional lab.

4D TEE
While Vivid E9* is currently used most frequently in the echo lab, the availability of the 4D TEE transducer enables the system to also be used in clinical settings including the cath lab, and the operating room.  
 

The Vivid E9 also includes several features that are new to GE cardiovascular ultrasound, and which are designed to enhance 4D imaging
and workflow.
 

Workflow enhancements can also be achieved during mitral valve acquisition with a dedicated MV button and during quantification with a
new plug-in tool that has the potential to help decrease assessment time.

Shared Services
Vivid E9* with XDclear* delivers excellent performance in your shared-services operation, including cardiac, stress echo, vascular, abdominal, OB/GYN, and small-parts applications. With a growing obese population, XDclear transducers can make a difference in many of your exams.

Vascular imaging
Vivid E9 with XDclear introduces enhancements in both 2D and color-flow image quality. The 9L-D transducer delivers enhanced signal-to-noise ratio, reducing noise in the vessels.

The 8C transducer is also well suited for vascular imaging. It supports carotid and vertebrae imaging where access with conventional wider aperture linear transducers may be limited by body type and anatomy.

General and abdominal imaging
Two new curved array transducers, the C1-5-D and C2-9-D, support generalimaging, as well as abdominal, renal, urology and OB/GYN applications. XDclear transducer architecture delivers the high spatial resolution anddeep penetration required for uniform presentation of anatomic structures throughout the field of view.

The new endocavity transducer, the iC5-9-D, is well-suited for OB/GYN applications, as well as fetal heart and urology. This transducer is an excellent addition to the comprehensive Vivid E9 transducer portfolio and complements Vivid E9’s excellent general imaging capabilities.
