GE Launches 4-D Ultrasound with Early Diagnostic Tools

The next-generation Voluson E8 includes a number of new tools to help improve clinical workflow, including SonoVCAD (Sonography-based Volume Computer Aided Diagnosis), a new automated imaging tool that improves workflow by making it easier to acquire volume images of the fetal heart.
This GE-exclusive technology is designed to make a difficult exam much easier by streamlining the acquisition of volumetric images of the fetal heart. This proprietary technology displays all of the 2-D planes, which complies with the recommended standard screening exam of the fetal heart, as outlined by the AIUM, the ACOG, the ACR and the ISUOG. It includes identification of the 4-chamber, left outflow tract and right outflow tract view of the fetal heart.
