CHICAGO, IL -- Today, GE Healthcare (NYSE: GE) launches two new ultrasound systems for the women's health market, the Voluson® E6 and LOGIQ® P3. Both systems are being showcased May 4-6, at the 57th Annual Clinical Meeting of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), in Chicago at GE Healthcare's booth #1315.

The Voluson E6 is the entry-level system to the advanced E-Series Voluson platform, and is designed specifically for obstetric and gynecological clinical applications. Designed for the everyday user, Voluson E6 features new attributes to help clinicians achieve higher levels of image quality and efficiency. Innovations in automation for the fetal heart, a scan assistant for quality assurance and improved workflow, and new transducer technology are just a few of the key features in this product introduction.



According to Karl-Heinz Lumpi, General Manager, GE Healthcare Women's Health and Specialty Ultrasound, the Voluson E6 fulfills an important role in the Voluson E-Series product line. "The Voluson E6 is designed to address the needs of OB/GYN physicians who care for large patient populations and need to have a versatile system with reliable, high quality imaging. This is a system that can be a workhorse for an OB/GYN practice and has expandable capabilities that can grow to meet the future needs of a practice. " Lumpi said.

The LOGIQ P3 is an economical, compact console ultrasound system offering surprising performance that can help clinicians deliver advanced imaging to OB/GYN practices. GE Healthcare has migrated robust features sets as CrossXBeamTM from more advanced LOGIQ systems, which enables the LOGIQ P3 to provide excellent performance. The LOGIQ P3 feature set is well-suited for OB applications and the system is compatible with the most frequently used LOGIQ obstetric transducers. Its lightweight and ergonomic design is small enough to easily maneuver to exam rooms and its robust workflow capabilities also help clinicians meet emerging digital information requirements for healthcare providers.

Additional GE Healthcare ultrasound products showcased at ACOG include:
