GE EchoPAC™ Dimension '06 Ultrasound System

As a comprehensive clinical workstation, the EchoPAC™ Dimension '06 gives you the choice of performing all your post-processing offline – even new multi-dimensional analyses – on images that retain the same superb image quality as those originally acquired and viewed on the ultrasound system. So you can optimize workflow by deciding when and where an echo exam is accessed, reviewed or finalized based on your scheduling needs and the experience and expertise of your team.

The EchoPAC Dimension offers review and analysis capabilities for multi-dimensional and 4D imaging, fully integrating with the multi-dimensional ultrasound data acquired on the Vivid™ 7 Dimension system. The freedom of choice extends to the echo lab with an information management solution that gives clinicians the ability to design their workflow according to the needs of their ultrasound lab. 

Productivity and Efficiency

EchoPAC Dimension allows you to shift more of your analyses and workload from your ultrasound system to the workstation – freeing up your system for additional exams – for more efficient workflow, higher patient throughput and increased productivity.

From the point of data capture with any ultrasound system, the EchoPAC Dimension gives you a productivity edge, enabling you to:

• Efficiently perform quantitative analyses, create reports and store images directly from your workstation
• Access and store images in DICOM or raw data DICOM formats to meet medical digital communication standards
• Import and export information with an exclusive DICOM Query/Retrieve function for workflow efficiency
• Access patient exam data from multiple ultrasound systems, whether in the echo lab or a physician’s office
• Pull exam data from a centralized archive for immediate review of single- or serial-exam studies
• Serve referring physicians with exclusive side-by-side exam review capability, or share a view concurrently from two different locations
• Send completed exams electronically to referring physicians in report formats via DVD, MPEGvue or export to a HIS
• Quickly generate the echo findings report using the "Structured Findings" module with pre-defined text statements and easy-to-navigate user interface
• Perform image review and reporting side-by-side with a dual monitor solution
• Automatically generate and transfer billing codes to your HIS via HL7

Advanced Analysis Technologies

The EchoPAC workstation gives you an array of advanced quantitative analysis tools, such as Tissue Velocity Imaging (TVI), Tissue Tracking, Quantitative Contrast, Strain Rate Imaging, Tissue Synchronization Imaging and IMT technology. These tools provide you with more cardiovascular information to enhance your diagnostic confidence.

And now, the EchoPAC Dimension '06 extends its functionality even further with multi-dimensional analysis and reporting capabilities made possible with the Vivid 7 Dimension ultrasound system and its multi-dimensional acquisitions.

The EchoPAC Dimension's new multi-dimensional analysis and reporting capabilities include:

• Advanced TSI
• Automated Function Imaging (AFI)
• 4D image display and navigator
• Tri-plane EF measurements
• Multi-plane imaging in 2D and color
• 4D post-processing
• 4D Tissue Synchronization Imaging (TSI)
• Bull's-eye report formats
• Full volumes
• 4D stress echo data
• 9 Slice
