GE Vivid Q Portable Ultrasound Machine

As part of the GE Vivid ultrasound series:
The addition of the M4S-RS matrix array
transducer produces enhanced 2D images
for adult cardiac applications.
Coded Octave imaging takes GE's image quality
to the next level, enhancing your images
for color flow and Doppler imaging.
Smart Depth automatically adapts imaging parameters
to help newer users see better results,
expert operators save time and increase standardization
among users.
Smart Stress improves workflow, shortens optimization
time and provides reproducibility for review,
wall-segment scoring and reporting.

Vivid q builds on the many industry leading features
and technologies of Vivid i with more performance,
new quantitative analysis tools and a wider range
of applications.
Provides the most commonly used parameter
to describe the LV function, the Ejection Fraction (EF).
Assists in finding the endocardial border.
Reduces the dependency of "seeing" the border
in each image by analyzing and tracking the myocardial tissue.
Automatically locates the end systolic and end diastolic frames.
Automated Function Imaging (AFI)
Supports LV function analysis, visualizing the longitudinal
wall shortening and lengthening
and highlighting a segment's contraction.
Can potentially be used to differentiate disease
from non disease segments.
Decreases LV function assessment variability,
provides clinical decision support and streamlines workflow.

Tissue Velocity Imaging (TVI) and Tissue Tracking (TT)
Show tissue velocity and displacement
in the direction of the ultrasound beam
with high temporal resolution,
and also visualize short events.
Tissue Synchronization Imaging (TSI)
Translates comprehensive quantification into
an easy-to understand image demonstrating
mechanical synchronicity of different myocardial segments.
Intracardiac Echo (ICE) imaging
Combining exceptional detail and quality of information
with advanced interventional echocardiography ultrasound
ICE imaging technology, Vivid q opens up a new window
to the heart.
ICE catheters deliver excellent image quality
and real-time visualization of cardiac structural anatomy,
with therapy catheters for monitoring
and guidance during interventional procedures.
ICE gives you a better understanding
of structural orientation during trans-septal
puncture procedures to help you avoid clinical complications.
