Innovative architecture, powerful E-Series transducers, and other advanced technologies combine to help minimize effort and enhance image quality. Simply gel, scan, and see.

  • S-Agile Architecture – Dynamically optimizes image acquisition for virtually every body type. Acquire remarkable images easily with minimal keystrokes, and achieve outstanding image uniformity.
  • E-Series Transducers – Help improve sensitivity, penetration, spatial resolution and image uniformity for greater clinical confidence.
  • High-Definition Speckle Reduction Imaging (SRI-HD) – Helps increase contrast resolution and maintains tissue appearance.
  • CrossXBeam* – Spatial compounding tool that combines multiple images from different angles into a single real-time image to help achieve a clearer view.
  • Coded Harmonic Imaging – Helps enhance near-field resolution for improved small parts imaging as well as far-field penetration compared with typical harmonic imaging.
  • LOGIQ View – Displays images over an extended length of anatomy, helping provide excellent visualization and more clinical information.1
  • B-Flow* Imaging – Uses non-Doppler technology to display true hemodynamics and enable direct visualization of blood flow without the limitations of Doppler.

Streamlined workflow that benefits you and your patients.

The more you enhance workflow, the more time you can devote to patient care. LOGIQ* S8 is packed with ergonomic and productivity features.

  • Ergonomic design helps promote comfort, convenience, and mobility, to help reduce user fatigue and risk of injury. At a svelte 187 lbs, this portable design fits easily into tight exam rooms and crowded bedsides. View a video about LOGIQ S8 ergonomics.
  • Multi-modality Query Retrieve allows you to bring a previous exam onto the system and view it side-by-side with a real-time ultrasound image to help you quickly find an area of interest.
  • Streamlined archiving and reporting – LOGIQ S8 provides robust DICOM connectivity and is compatible with many imaging IT solutions. This connectivity allows you to save images to a central location and review alongside other imaging modalities.
    • With ViewPoint* 6, GE Healthcare’s reporting and image management solution, users can connect with a PACS or Electronic Medical Record (EMR) for comprehensive patient record storage. This can help improve workflow and enhance communication throughout the facility as well as with referring physicians.

  • Efficiency features help provide reduced keystrokes, exam consistency and smooth archiving and reporting.
    • Raw Data – allows a virtual rescan of the patient at any time
      after the study, on the system or at a remote workstation.
    • Power Assistant – provides the system battery power during transport to help decrease system shut-down and reboot time by 90%1 – helping provide excellent productivity for portable exams.
    • Wireless – frees you from frustrating cables for transmission of patient data during mobile exams.
    • Compare Assistant – helps standardize imaging protocols, and expedite exam preparation and planning by enabling view of a prior study while conducting the current exam
    • Breast and Thyroid Productivity Packages  help improve efficiency and standardization of lesion reporting by automating the labeling, measuring, and description of lesions to enhance both efficiency and clinical confidence.
    • Breast Measure Assistant – allows users to contour and measure lesions quickly, trace lesion boundaries and generate two-dimensional measurements with just a few keystrokes, enhancing the speed and confidence of lesion characterization.
    • OB Measure Assistant – allows users to measure anatomy quickly and generate two-dimensional measurements with just a few keystrokes.  Simply push Print to accept or easily edit as needed.
    • AutoEF – enables a semi-automatic measurement of the global EF (Ejection fraction). The AutoEF tool tracks and calculates the myocardial tissue deformation based on feature tracking on B-Mode cine loops.
    • Scan Assistant – Scan Assistant anticipates and preps the next step of a scan, helps reduce keystrokes, and frees you to focus on the patient. A GE-commissioned study
      performed by an independent third party sonographer revealed a 78% reduction in keystrokes and a 49% reduction in exam time. Scan Assistant performs the following tasks:

      • Initiates and auto-completes measurements
      • Automatically steers color Doppler
      • Sets up imaging controls and modes
      • Insert comments
      • Automatically reorders images to your preference, independent of acquisition sequence. View a video about LOGIQ S8 Scan Assistant.

A system suited to your needs.

The LOGIQ S8 is adaptable to a variety of clinical settings.. This versatile platform easily handles both general and specialized imaging—including abdominal, musculoskeletal, small parts, breast, vascular, cardiology, pediatrics, OB/GYN and more—on patients of many sizes.

  • Specialized Tools – a variety of tools can help you increase efficiency for specialized exams including:
    • Elastography – helps evaluate tissue stiffness and helps provide additional diagnostic information.  Elastography includes tools that help make it easy to use and  help in patient management decisions.
    • Auto IMT – provides automatic edge detection for intima-media thickness (IMT) and helps to enhance the consistency and  reliability of IMT measurements when evaluating the carotid artery.

Gain confidence with this strong investment value.

For all its agility and power, the LOGIQ S8 is solid in one critical area: investment value. Highly affordable with a wide range of clinical applications, it offers the performance to price balance you want in an ultrasound system. You can rely on superb images, streamlined workflow and a system that is truly suited to your needs—combined with GE Healthcare’s responsive service, support and financing options.
