An array of AI-powered features and automated tools may lead to improved workflow and image quality with the Voluson Expert 22, 20 and 18 ultrasound systems.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) clearance for artificial intelligence (AI) updates to the Voluson Expert Series of ultrasound systems geared toward examination of women with high-risk pregnancies.
New AI-enabled features with the Voluson Expert 22, 20 and 18 ultrasound systems include SonoLystlive, which facilitates increased accuracy for 11 to 14-week anatomical exams, and Graphicflow, which offers real-time visualization of blood flow trajectory that aids in detecting abnormal hemodynamics, according to GE HealthCare, the manufacturer of the Voluson Expert ultrasound platforms.
The company said other benefits include live C-plane tracking and automated plane alignment with SonoPelvicFloor3.0, which reportedly decreases exam time for pelvic floor measurement by 80 percent.
