Vivid iq - BEAI

Vivid iq product datasheet – August 2016 – DOC1755060 Page 1 of 17

Ease of use in 4D imaging is accom-plished with a number of GEHC innovations, including Single-beat 4D, 4D Views, Advanced 4D User Toolbox, Advanced 4D User Quantification Package and 4D Auto LVQ.

The touch gesture provides an extremely friendly user interface, making the Vivid iq an ease of use new generation product.

Ergonomic features include the ergonomically designed LCD monitor and view angle adjusting mechanism. This enables continuous view angle adjustment of the LCD monitor, allow-ing the user to move the LCD monitor much closer to the operator, enabling the user to view at an optimized angle for text and annotation typing. And the TrackPad design is also ergonomic.

The innovative cart provides adequate legroom for standing or sitting positions. It is very easy to lock the console on the cart and remove it. In addition, the new up-down mechanism provides very easy continuous height adjustment.

These ergonomic designs make the Vivid iq an extremely ergonomic-friendly cardiovascular ultrasound system.

Portability – The Vivid iq innovative compact design and touch user inter-face is ultraportable and light weight. This design combined with a flexible monitor design, enables easy transpor-tation, typing and promotes scanning at the patient site. The battery option provides additional scanning time without a power supply and also allows quick boot up time from standby mode.

The Vivid iq excels in the following areas:

Exceptional image quality on the Vivid iq is created through the use of ultra definition clarity filtering, elevation compound imaging (con- sidering a wider slice for 2D imaging) with the 6VT-D probe, virtual apex ( larger field-of-view) for the FPA probes.

Probe Technology – The XDclear™ series of probes are designed to help deliver powerful and efficient sound waves, with high bandwidth and efficiency. XDclear probe technology provides impressive deep penetration and high sensitivity while maintaining high spatial resolution. The combination of single crystal, acoustic amplifier and cool stack technologies is the core technology of the XDclear series of probes.

Coded Harmonics – Produces excellent quality images from even difficult-to-image patients.

Ease of use features make Vivid iq an extremely productive 2D and 4D cardiovascular ultrasound system.

The combination of the full touch screen control with a conventional user control panel provides intuitive controls, helping the operator maintain focus on the patient and the ultrasound images during the exam.

Ease of use for the operator in 2D imaging is provided by the GE’s exclusive technology delivering auto optimized excellent image quality with little manipulation along with automated tools like 2D auto EF, AFI productivity package and scan assist pro.

Vivid iq4D*

Product DescriptionThe Vivid™ iq combines the proven high performance of the Vivid product line with a new and innovative portable laptop. The Vivid iq is a comprehensive digital color flow Doppler ultrasound system. It is designed for cardiac and shared service imaging with support for the following clinical applications: cardiac, transesophageal, intracardiac, intraoperative, peripheral vascular, adult cephalic, neonatal cephalic, musculoskeletal conventional, muscu-loskeletal superficial, transcranial and transvaginal applications.

System Architecture GE’s exclusive, patented, beamforming technology provides the power for this multi-purpose ultrasound system enabling full volume single-beat and multi-beat 4D acquisition. Using both coherent and harmonic image process-ing, the system provides computational power, ease of imaging, workflow flexibility and product upgradeability.

*Vivid iq 4D is a configuration of the Vivid iq ultrasound system.


Additionally, the Vivid iq uses the proven raw data format technology that allows for advanced processing on archived images by applying many of the same scan controls and advanced quantitative tools as are available during the original exam.

• TheVivid iq ultrasound unit meets theEMCrequirementsinIEC60601-1-2:2014 as Group1, Class A specified byCISPR11.

Virus ProtectionTo reduce virus vulnerability, Vivid iq is configured with a minimal set of open ports and with all network services not actively used by the system closed down. This helps to significantly reduce the risk of a virus attack on Vivid iq.

GE is continuously judging the need for additional actions to reduce vulnerability of equipment; this includes vulnerability scanning of our products and evaluation ofnewsecuritypatchesforthe3rd-partytechnologyused.Microsoft® (and other) security patches that address serious issues with Vivid iq will be made available to customers after GE verification of those patches.
