Calais Community Hospital is pleased to announce the arrival and installation of a brand-new GE Logiq E10 Ultrasound machine. The new equipment provides better quality images, exceptional detail, and allows the sonographer to see certain structures within the body easier and more clearly. Pictured is CCH Ultrasound Tech Whitney Mauser with the new GE Logiq E10 ultrasound machine.
The GE Logiq E10 boasts many advanced features. The E10’s advanced graphics processing unit (GPU) hardware technology acquires and reconstructs data in a similar way to an MRI or CT system, enabling 48 times the data throughput and 10 times the processing power of previous systems. The image reconstruction platform is so powerful that it can process an amount of data equivalent to playing two entire DVDs in just one second, in real time. The system’s new photo assistant app feature enables sonographers to photograph relevant anatomy and include the photos with the clinical images sent to the radiologist, providing valuable context and documentation. The systems also store original data from the scan so that, if necessary, providers can go back to extract and reanalyze information without extending a patients exam time.
This GE Logiq E10 machine allows CCH to offer a variety of ultrasounds examining the following areas and issues:
- breast
- abdomen
- aorta
- renal
- thyroid
- carotid
- scrotum
- deep vein thrombosis
- pelvic
- Early OB and OB growth studies
