GE's Compact Series of ultrasound systems includes:
Vivid e provides a dedicated cardiac ultrasound imaging solution for the physician office in a practical, easy to use design.
Vivid i enhances the efficiency and reach of physicians by offering the functionality and high performance of full-featured, larger-scale cardiovascular systems but in a portable and wireless design that weighs 30 times less. In 2006, the Vivid i added a host of new features and enhancements including, stress echo, tissue velocity imaging, IMT measurements and Tissue Tracking.
Each product is designed to bring specialized, console-quality imaging performance and portability to traditional applications. GE's Compact Series e products focus on expanding ultrasound's reach to new clinical areas.
Remarkable. Portable. Affordable.
By delivering high quality in an affordable solution, Vivid e makes choosing a portable system as easy as using it. With complete cardiac functionality built on TruScan architecture, you can use Vivid e as either a primary or secondary diagnostic system. And through its full shared-service capabilities, both vascular and abdominal imaging are available too.

Echo to Go
And as a truly portable cardiovascular ultrasound system, you can effortlessly take the small, 4.6 kg (10.1 lb) Vivid e system into more places. Putting GE's technological leadership into more hands.
* Comprehensive, diagnostic exams with the confidence building image quality expected from the GE Ultrasound Vivid product line * Easy-to-use, automatic image optimization - in 2D, color and Doppler imaging - instantly updates thousands of parameters with one keystroke for optimal scanning * Anatomical M-Mode assists with off-axis orientation to make scanning easier
Stress testing made easy.
As a member of the GE Vivid family, a number of significant features have migrated from the Vivid 7, such as a new stress echo package, allowing you to bring stress testing right into your office. By extending our offering of cardiovascular support, like new reporting tools, this is the system that fits all of your needs.
Enhanced, real-time definition gives you the clinical confidence you've been waiting for in a compact, convenient and economical ultrasound system.
TruScan delivers image quality you can depend on.
Our TruScan architecture, with raw data acquisition, results in exceptional images that can then be viewed, measured, optimized and analyzed without losing any of the original image quality.
Focusing on precise imaging.
The new dual focus for cardiac applications, and the new range focus for vascular and abdominal imaging, strengthen the quality of both applications even further.
Compound imaging produces a brilliant combination.
With the inclusion of compound imaging, multiple co-planar images from different angles are combined into a single, real-time image. You get improved border definition and contrast resolution, plus reduced angular dependence of edges.
With Speckle Reduce Imaging, the difference is clear.
Our new feature to remove speckle - Speckle Reduce Imaging - examines the relative difference between neighboring pixel values, determining whether the gray-scale variations have a sharp difference or are random. The outcome is purely dynamic homogeneous images.
Compact System Delivers Productivity of a CV Console
The Vivid e supports a streamlined user interface that facilitates efficient work flow during ultrasound examinations. Productivity is increased with tools such as multi-image review, a comprehensive measurement and analysis package, and integrated reporting, which have migrated from the Vivid platform. These tools, in addition to the non-imaging CW pedoff transducer, can help even the busiest accredited environment.
Shared Service Productivity
This robust system offers adult cardiac applications, including stress echo and contrast imaging, as well as vascular, abdominal, OB/GYN, and small-parts applications.
Its compact size and superb maneuverability let you take the Vivid e virtually anywhere, for outstanding efficiency in any environment.
Automated work flows improve the system's ease of use, reducing scan times and increasing throughput of the ultrasound examination. The system has complete DICOM connectivity, as well as CD/DVD and USB for image storage.
Fully integrated cardiac, vascular and OB/GYN measurement and report packages result in less time spent documenting after the patient has left.
Docking Cart
Our optional docking cart quickly converts your compact, 10 lb. device into a console configuration. Three transducer connectors provide easy access, and the height-adjustable cart makes viewing more comfortable and convenient. Other options include an additional 17" monitor positioned above the Vivid e to assist with group viewing, and external loud speakers that improve sound quality. An integrated USB and 6-socket power strip are also available.
Connectivity Options
And comprehensive connectivity options round out the Vivid e's productivity enhancements and improve your clinical work flow. Which is no small feat.
* Intuitive cardiovascular workflow * 40-GB internal hard drive for rapid image storage and retrieval * Comprehensive connectivity options include wireless DICOM, DVD, USB, VCR, printers and MPEGvue * Comprehensive M&A package * Quick system boot-up and battery re-charge
