HDlive is not just 3D rendering, but the use of virtual light sources and shadows to create superior depth and tissue detail.

• HDlive Studio+: Combines three independent light sources to display the fetal face with lifelike realism.⁸
• HDlive Silhouette: Allows clinicians to see through external tissue layers to observe the internal structures of the embryo or internal organs.
• HDlive Flow: Integrates vascular flow data into 3D volume rendering, providing clear visualization of the fetal vascular system’s development.

GE HealthCare has redefined color Doppler ultrasound with these technologies:

• Radiantflow: Uses the amplitude of the color Doppler signal to create flow images with 3D depth. This helps clinicians easily identify tiny blood vessels and their boundaries, which is particularly important in evaluating fetal heart and brain vessels.
• SlowflowHD: Expands visualization to ultra-slow flows, allowing for the assessment of perfusion in tumors or microcirculation in the ovaries and endometrium.

These features are designed to address the daily challenges of ultrasound clinicians:

• Augment: With the push of a button, the system automatically reduces noise and enhances penetration, significantly improving image quality on high-BMI patients.
• Shadow Reduction: Automatically compensates for shadow regions behind bony structures (such as ribs or the fetal spine), recovering obscured tissue information for a more comprehensive view.

SonoLyst is the world’s first AI toolset that automatically recognizes fetal anatomical planes.

• SonoLystIR: Recognizes organs, automatically annotates, and performs measurements as soon as the clinician freezes the image.
• SonoLystlive: Operates fully automatically while the clinician scans, helping to identify and capture standard plane images without requiring repeated manual steps.

Evaluating the fetal brain is one of the most difficult parts of obstetric ultrasound. SonoCNS uses deep learning algorithms to automatically extract standard planes (thalamic, cerebellum, etc.) from a single 3D data volume while simultaneously performing automated brain biometric measurements. This technology helps reduce fetal brain evaluation time by up to 81%.

Assessing the female pelvic floor postpartum or for uterine prolapse is often complex and time-consuming. SonoPelvicFloor automates plane alignment and performs measurements related to the anal sphincter and bladder, reducing examination time by 80% and eliminating inter-operator variability.

The Voluson series provides specialized tools to help IVF centers optimize success rates.

• SonoAVC™follicle: Automatically counts and measures the volume of ovarian follicles. The latest version 2.0 uses AI to precisely recognize follicles even when they are close together or surrounded by blood vessels, helping clinicians make more accurate egg retrieval decisions.
• SonoAVCantral 2.0: A tool that helps count antral follicles with up to 92% accuracy, supporting an objective assessment of ovarian reserve.
• Uterine Trace: An automated tool that reconstructs the coronal plane of the uterus in 3 simple steps, helping to quickly detect uterine anomalies such as a septate or arcuate uterus.
