GE Healthcare Vivid E9 with XDclear - Manual (Page 3)

XDclear. High speed and image quality to help
make your work life easier.
An advanced, intuitive ultrasound leadership system, Vivid E9
with XDclear provides extraordinary image quality for the
following imaging modes: 2D, color flow, Doppler, and 4D.
It’s well-suited for serving your cardiovascular and shared
services needs.
Five new imaging transducers—two designed with GE
Healthcare’s XDclear transducer technology—complement
an already robust portfolio of adult, pediatric, vascular, and
abdominal transducers.
Vivid E9 with XDclear helps strengthen 4D display and
visualization, as well as 2D and 4D quantification. It offers
excellent workflow and portability—designed into a powerful,
versatile platform built for current and future innovations.
Advanced transducer technology
Thanks to recent advances in transducer technology,
XDclear transducers are GE Healthcare‘s highest-performing
transducers. XDclear transducers are designed to deliver
more powerful and efficient sound waves, with higher
bandwidth and efficiency than traditional GE transducers.
XDclear technology is built on a combination of three
innovations in acoustic engineering:
• Single Crystal provides a method to “grow” advanced
piezoelectric material with the polarity of the molecules
aligned to deliver a high-quality acoustic signal with
enhanced bandwidth and efficiency.
• Acoustic Amplifier design acoustically insulates the core
transducer structure from the mechanical housing to
capture and redirect unused energy that passes through
the crystal. This enhances power efficiency bandwidth and
helps reduce noise and heat dissipation.
• Cool Stack helps optimize energy use by relieving inherent
heat generation that can otherwise reduce sensitivity
and penetration.
The result: Impressive penetration and/or high sensitivity—
while still maintaining high spatial resolution.
At your service
From your adult and pediatric echo labs, to your interventional
suite and OR, Vivid E9 with XDclear can help deliver improved
image quality in 2D, 4D, color, and Doppler, for enhanced
diagnostic confidence and to help shorten exam times.
Adult echo
By providing superb image quality even on difficult-to-scan
patients, Vivid E9 with XDclear helps increase diagnostic
confidence and productivity in adult echocardiography.
Interventional/OR
With the introduction of the visualization tools Polar
Vision and Depth Illumination, Vivid E9 with XDclear offers
extraordinary, clear 3D depth perception of cardiac structures
during image-guided device placements, as well as during
other transthoracic or transesophageal procedures.
Pediatrics
For your pediatric patient population, the echo imaging
capability of the Vivid E9 with XDclear can provide lifetime
follow-up – from the fetal heart, through pediatrics, to adult
congenital heart issues – for excellent patient care.
Shared services
With a comprehensive portfolio of transducers that deliver
extraordinary image quality on a broad spectrum of body
types, Vivid E9 with XDclear is well-suited for a variety of
shared services uses, including cardiac, peripheral vascular,
abdominal, and OB/Gyn.
