Voluson E10: Your Vision. New Perspectives

More detail. More clarity. Less time and effort.

The Voluson E10 system’s new rendering technologies provide you with the best image quality you have ever seen from a Voluson – in a split of the time needed so far.

Radiantflow™

Slowflow HD

With this new Doppler technology, you can visualise vessels with extremely low level of flow in a very good spatial resolution.

Advanced VCI

Advanced VCI – Adjusts slice thickness on 3D or 4D images to help enhance contrast resolution with use of render techniques such as bone and tissue renderings. Can be applied in the acquisition plane (VCI-A), static 3D volumes, or OmniView

OmniView

OmniView – Obtain any plane from a 3D or 4D volume by simply drawing a line, curve, poly-line or trace through a structure. This valuable technology enables views of even irregularly shaped structures not attainable in 2D imaging

SonoRenderlive

This valuable feature supports you with placement of the render line for surface rendering with reduced artifacts. SonoRenderStart automatically searches for the impedance jump between the fetal surface and the amniotic fluid, nearly entirely eliminating all echo structures proximal to this interface.

SonoRenderlive continuously updates render line placement with fetal movement during 4D examinations.

Voluson E10 – Gain efficiency with automation

Your growing workload requires reduction of the time needed for ultrasound diagnostics. Easy-to-use automation and assistance features help streamline examination schedules and enhance the precision and consistency of measurements and analyses.

SonoBiometry – Performs semi-automated biometry measurements (BPD, HC, AC, FL and HL) to help reduce keystrokes to the minimum.

SonoNT (Sonography-based Nuchal Translucency) and SonoIT (Sonography-based Intracranial Translucency) – for semi-automatic, standardised and highly consistent measurements of the nuchal and intracranial translucencies in the first trimester. Both tools can be integrated easily into your workflow. SonoNT helps reduce the inter-observer and intra-observer variability that comes with manual measurements, and helps provide you with excellent reproducible measurement results.

SonoVCAD heart (Sonography-based Volume Computer Aided Display heart) – With manually set four-chamber view, identifies all standard planes, extracts them automatically from echo volume, arranging them together with the four-chamber view on the monitor.

SonoAVC general (Sonography-based Automated Volume Count general) – Recognises, marks and automatically counts the number and volume of hypoechoic structures, such as the fetal brain, kidneys and gynecological sonohystograms.

Scan Assistant – Enables individual pre-programming of any sequences, performs examination and measurement workflows, helping increase examination consistency. In addition to reduction of keystrokes, Scan Assistant also simplifies documenting and transferring of results to diagnosis and archiving systems, thereby increasing efficiency.

SonoCNS is used for examination of fetal central nervous system (CNS) based on acquired 3D/4D ultrasound volume. This new tool from GE provides views in the following planes: transventricular (TV), transcerebellar (TC), transthalamic (TT) and median (MS). The required volume can be acquired, loaded from the archive or extracted from a 4DCine sequence.
