Review

GE Vivid S60 Review:

The GE Vivid S70 and the GE Vivid S60 are GE’s new cardiovascular systems who cover a wide range of price points from midrange to high-end cardiac, effectively meeting the requirements of long-term GE Vivid S6 and GE Vivid S5 customers.

The GE Vivid S70 and the GE Vivid S60 are empowered by GE’s new cSound beamformer software and image reconstruction platform. However, the GE Vivid S60 does not support XDClear transducers like the GE Vivid S70 or the Vivid E series. The major difference with the GE Vivid S60 is that the GE Vivid S70 supports 4D TEE and XDclear technology.

The GE Vivid S60 is a good option for physicians considering to have high-end 2D and Doppler image quality without premium features. Its 19″ monitor seems a bit small when compared with those of competitors, such as the 21.5” wide LCD monitor from the Affiniti series. However, the larger 12″ LCD touchscreen will provide support for a more comfortable and efficient workflow.

The biggest weakness of the Vivid S70 and the Vivid S60 is the narrow range of transducers; there is only one linear option: the 9L-D. A couple of linear probes and an intraoperative probe are expected to be added soon. If 4D TEE is not a reason for purchasing a high-end cardiac system, then the GE Vivid S60, or a factory-refurbished GE Vivid E9 can be also be a great option to consider.
