Review

GE Vivid E95 Review:

The GE Vivid E95 and the Vivid E90 are GE’s new premium cardiovascular systems upgraded from the GE Vivid E9, and empowered by GE’s new cSound software beamformer and image reconstuction platform. Along with new cSound plaform, another major improvement of the GE Vivid E95 and the Vivid E90 over the Vivid E9 are 3 XDclear transducers, namely the M5Sc-D, the C2-9-D, and the C1-6-D who each add enhanced resolution, sensitivity and penetration (up to 50 cm).

The major difference between the two systems is that the GE Vivid E90 does not have 4D echocardiography. However, the newly added dedicated beamforming software of the GE Vivid E90 provides potentially the best 2D and Doppler cardiac image quality in the market, which an operator can expect by combining cSound and the M5Sc XDclear transducer.

Though the Matrix 4D and Matrix 4D TEE transducers seem identical to those of the Vivid E9, the newly added dedicated beamforming software on the GE Vivid E95 provides a much improved 4D cardiac capability. By combining cSound and the M5Sc XDclear transducer, the operator can expect greatly improved 2D and Doppler cardiac images.

The GE Vivid E95 is one of the few systems that integrates a large 22″ high-resolution OLED monitor. The OLED monitor offers a better clarity and resolution and is part of the next generation of monitors beyond LCD. In addition, the larger 12″ LCD touchscreen will provide the operator with a more comfortable and efficient workflow. The range of transducers offered by the GE Vivid E95 is almost similar to the Vivid E9, with the exception of a high frequency linear transducer, which will soon be added to fully cover vascular applications.

If 4D echocardiography is a reason for choosing the GE Vivid E95, then the Philips EPIQ 7 is also a great option to consider. Though it has a smaller Matrix 4D Volume transducer, it bolsters a longer proven period of 4D echocardiography. If 4D echocardiography is not a reason for purchasing a premium cardiac system, then the GE Vivid E90 can be an alternative option. Besides the GE Vivid E95 offering a 4D option, the two systems are the same. Also, if considering the price and system reliabilty, the GE’s factory-refurbished Vivid E9 with a 4D package can be a great option as well.
