GE's Transformation Of Cardiovascular Ultrasound Continues At ACC

GE Healthcare, a global ultrasound leader, continues to re-invent and re-imagine the technology behind its success, addressing the growing demand for cardiac imaging at the point of care. At this year's meeting of the American College of Cardiology (ACC) in Chicago, GE Healthcare is launching its latest ultrasound system designed to deliver excellent performance and breakthrough technology. The all-new, mobile, streamlined Vivid S5 cardiovascular ultrasound system has been designed as a dedicated cardiovascular solution for various care areas, from the hospital and clinic to the operating room to the physician's office, in a practical, easy to use design.

By leveraging GE Healthcare's miniaturization expertise gained from the compact Vivid i, the performance expertise of the console Vivid 7 and the proven utility and versatility of the Vivid 4, GE introduces a new concept and performance level for its ultrasound consoles. In the vein of the Vivid S6 signature class cardiovascular ultrasound system, introduced at the American Heart Association meeting last fall, the Vivid S5 delivers strong performance, excellent image quality and innovative design. Its stress echo capabilities and raw data DICOM expand the reach of patient examinations.
