GE Logiq P9 Ultrasound Review
GE is the largest global ultrasound developer and manufacturer in the world. They design and produce numerous diagnostic ultrasound systems in many global R&D and production sites such as in the United States, Japan, Korea, China, and India.
The Logiq series targets the general imaging market and has been very successful in the ultrasound and healthcare markets. The Logiq P series was also created for the economy market, to provide some of the premium features at a lower cost bracket. The GE Logiq P7 and P9 are successors to the GE Logiq P5 and Logiq P6, which have been two of the bestselling GE Logiq systems over the last two decades. Launched in 2016, the GE Logiq P7 and P9 are the latest in the Logiq series.
Because GE Healthcare shares ultrasound hardware and software across many of their global production sites, they can keep the cost of the materials down and pass those savings on to their customers. The GE Logiq P7 and Logiq P9 benefit from this low-cost effect through the integration of unique and advanced technologies, such as Digital TGC, at an affordable price. The GE Logiq P9 has an affordable price range of between $19,000 and $29,000 on average, which allows many customers to also purchase high-end hardware options for the ultrasound, such as a 21.5-inch LCD monitor, a 10.4-inch LCD touchscreen, 4 probe ports, a gel warmer, a wireless LAN, and an articulated arm.
With powerful hardware and software architecture, the GE Logiq P9 supports high-end transducer options such as the C1-5-RS, the ML6-15-RS, and the L8-18i-RS. With these options, the user’s diagnostic criteria can easily be upgraded.
Unlike other mid-end to high-end ultrasound systems, the Logiq P7 and Logiq P9 can have their diagnostic outputs greatly improved through key options and outstanding general imaging features such as 3D/4D, Elastography with quantification, B Steer+, Panoramic imaging, B-Flow with Color, Scan Assistant, Compare Assistant, 4D TUI, VOCAL, and Coded Contrast Imaging.
The GE Logiq P9 can also cover in-depth cardiovascular exams through integrated automated functions and dedicated cardiovascular technologies such as Auto IMT, Auto EF, TVI with Q-Analysis, Stress Echo, SW DVR, and the 6S-RS pediatric sector transducer.

GE Logiq P9 Key Features
• Auto Optimization is a one-touch image optimization function that a user uses to optimize the image, based on the actual B-mode image or Pulse wave Doppler data. The function works based on preset levels (Low, Medium, and High) and allows users to pick a preference for the contrast enhancement in the resulting image. Low does the least amount of contrast enhancement, high does the most. Auto Optimization is available in single or multi-image, on live, frozen, or CINE images (in B-Mode only), while in the zoom, and in Spectral Doppler. Auto Optimization in PW Doppler Mode optimizes the spectral data. Auto adjusts the Velocity Scale (live imaging only), baseline shift, dynamic range, and invert (if preset). Upon deactivation, the spectrum is still optimized.
• B-Flow utilizes grayscale imaging to visualize a blood flow with different gray intensities according to the reflector’s speed and hemodynamics. B-Flow is less dependent on the user or scanning angle, while Color Doppler is heavily dependent on the scanning angle. It also provides a higher frame rate and spatial resolution than Color Flow. B-Flow may help visualize vessel-wall irregularities, kidney perfusion, liver and spleen vasculature, and bladder reflux or jets.
• SRI (Speckle Reduction Imaging) reduces speckle noise in the images, which affect the edges and fine details that limit the contrast resolution and make the diagnostic more difficult.
• CrossBeam (Spatial Compounding Imaging) obtains real-time sonographic information from several different angles of insonation and combines them to produce a single image. CrossBeam helps reduce speckle artifacts, enhance mass margin delineation, and improve anatomical details.
• Coded Harmonic Imaging (CHI) utilizes Digitally Encoded Ultrasound (DEU). Harmonics enhances near field resolution for improved small parts imaging. Harmonics diminish low-frequency high amplitude noise and improves imaging for technically difficult patients. Harmonics may be especially beneficial when imaging isoechoic lesions in shallow-depth anatomy in the breast, liver, and hard-to-visualize fetal anatomy. Harmonics may improve B-Mode image quality without introducing a contrast agent.
• LogiqView (Panoramic Imaging) enables a transducer to be moved along a larger organ, stitching multiple images together to form one long image with an extremely wide field of view.
• Auto IMT automates measurement of intima-media thickness of vessels. Auto IMT helps keep track of atherosclerosis diseases from the early stage as it is developed.
• B Steer simply slants B-mode or Color Flow linear images left or right to get more information without moving the probe. This enables enhanced needle visualization in real-time for needle guidance procedures. The angle steer function only applies to linear probes.
• Scan Assistant is the customizable scanning assistant tool that enables a user to save scanning protocols of each lab that helps decrease key stokes from up to 60~70% of ordinary operations. With fewer user actions, an exam can be complete because a user does not need to move all around the console and only requires one button to be pushed at most of the exams.
• Compare Assistant views past studies and current images together in real-time via a split-screen on the monitor.
• Strain Elastography is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that displays the relative elasticity of tissue stiffness compared to the surrounding tissue by a real-time color map that is superimposed on a conventional grayscale image. Most malignant lesions have a harder or stiffer consistency than the surrounding benign tissue. This change in stiffness can also be present in chronic or inflammatory diseases. To displace the underlying anatomical structures, Strain Elastography requires manual palpation by the user or compression or decompression of the target produced by the patient respiration. It can be an efficient tool to improve biopsy targeting and imaging, evaluate breast and testicular lesions, and perform quick monitoring and follow up of interventional procedures. It can also provide additional information to increase diagnostic confidence for musculoskeletal diseases such as tendinopathies, tendinosis, synovial hypertrophy, or tears.
• Auto EF is the function that automatically measures LV ejection fraction. Along with the Automated Function Imaging (AFI) feature, Auto EF maximizes time efficiency by the reproducible quantitative output that increases the physician’s diagnostic confidence.
• Tissue Velocity Imaging (TVI) is a myocardial Doppler Imaging with a color overlay on the tissue image that is available on the sector probes. Tissue color overlay can be removed to show just the 2D image, while still retaining the tissue velocity information. Tissue Velocity Imaging (TVI) is an ultrasound-based technique used for quantitative analysis of the cardiac function and has earlier been evaluated according to myocardial velocities. The technique is the same as for Doppler echocardiography, which measures flow velocities. Tissue signals, however, have higher amplitude and lower velocities, and the signals are extracted by using different filter and gain settings.
• Battery Pack is an optional power supply. The battery maintains the system’s power when there is an AC power failure or when the power cable is unplugged. Also, this helps maintain the system’s power when it needs to be.
• Virtual Convex is available on linear and sector probes. Virtual Convex provides a larger field of view in the far field. Virtual Convex is always active with sector probes.
