     Saint Catherine Regional Hospital announced recently that it has acquired a new, high tech ultrasound system for GE Healthcare. The LOGIQ®9 is a premier ultrasound system designed to get patients in and out of the exam room faster than ever before.
    A new medical imaging technique called Volume Ultrasound helps clinicians at Saint Catherine Regional Hospital to quickly and precisely perform a broad variety of ultrasound exams from abdominal and breast to vascular imaging.
    With Volume Ultrasound, Saint Catherine’s clinicians simply sweep the ultrasound transducer over a patient’s anatomy to collect the image information needed. With this volume of image data, the clinician is able to "virtually" do additional analysis and create a variety of images of the anatomy of concern after the patient has left the medical office.
    "Virtual re-scan allows our clinicians to create 3D or 4D views, analyze high-resolution zooms of anatomy, or apply special reading effects without the patients having to be there or return for additional exams," explains Mindi Burch, Director of Ancillary Services. "This helps to reduce patient visits, as well as being beneficial for extremely sick patients or those with difficulties when being scanned."
    In addition, they chose Ge’s LOGIQ 9 because it provides a clearer picture to view. This greatly assists patients to better understand what they are looking at when doctors explain their ultrasound exams.
    The patient experience gets even better with the help of LOGIQ 9's ergonomic design. Saint Catherine clinicians now have the freedom to perform multiple tasks simultaneously. This helps patients to become more comfortable and the clinician will now be able to build a closer relationship with each patient.
    "We’re breaking barriers in speed and accuracy of patient exams and are now able to offer new and enhanced ultrasound procedures thanks to our new LOGIQ 9 Ultrasound System," stated Burch. "The technology is greatly benefitting both our physicians and patients at Saint Catherine’s."
