GE Logic Vision Series and Logiq Forward Series are both known for excellent image quality, productivity features and affordability. Both are positioned as shared-services offerings in India, but with different emphasis. How to compare GE Logiq V5 & GE Logiq F6 ultrasound machines launched around similar time period.
GE Logiq Vision series ultrasound machine
The LOGIQ V5 is an entry level ultrasound scanners from the LOGIQ Vision series. Although it can be used for Abdominal, OB/GYN, Small Parts, Musculoskeletal, General Imaging, Superficial, Vascular, Urology, TCD, Cardiac, Pediatrics, its key focus in India is ObGyn /Women’s health.
Logiq V5 provides excellent image quality through advanced features such as,
- MLA4 Technology increases frame rate by 4X1 by processing each echo along four simultaneous receiver beams to study moving organs and blood flow data
- Real Time Speckle Reduction Imaging (SRI-HD) helps reduce noise while enhancing true tissue architecture
- CrossXBeam imaging enhances tissue interfaces and border differentiation with compound imaging technology
- Coded Harmonic Imaging helps improve near field resolution in small-parts imaging
- B-Steer helps view deep vessels and structures that are angled (ex. tendons insertion)
Logiq V5 supports the following basic and advanced imaging modes such as 2D M-Mode, Anatomical M-Mode, Color M-Mode, Color Doppler, Power Doppler, PW Doppler, HPRF, CW Doppler, Scan Coach, AutoDoppler Calculations, Panoramic Imaging, AutoIMT, SonoBiometry, Directional Color Power Doppler, Auto Optimization etc.
Logiq V5 also features
- Scan Coach and Scan Assistant for guidance during scanning.
- LOGIQ View allows real-time imaging of long anatomical structures too large to be seen in a single image
- Virtual Convex provides expanded field of view when using linear and sector probes
- Easy 3D Technology helps acquire free hand 3D dataset to visualize volumetric anatomies
Although Logiq V5 has specifically helpful Urology calculations features and promoted for Urology purposes in some countries, in India, With Easy 3D technology, SonoBiometry and compatibility of E8Cs-RS endocavity probe Logic V5 is specifically promoted for ObGyn and Women’s health. GE Logiq V3 is similar to Logiq V5 but may have more features as optional.
GE Logiq F6 & GE Logiq F8 ultrasound machines
The LOGIQ Forward Series systems like Logiq F6 and Logiq F8 have many innovative imaging technologies found in high-end GE ultrasound systems such as – Phase-Inversion Harmonics and Speckle-Reduction Imaging, Real-time spatial compounding acquisition and processing techniques help enhance tissue and border definition, wide, dual-view monitor to enhance visualization flexibility
The Logiq F6 and Logiq F8 ultrasound machines support imaging modes and special features such as 2D M-Mode, Color M-Mode, Power Doppler, PW Doppler, CW Doppler, Anatomical M-Mode, Auto Optimization, Compound Imaging, Tissue Harmonics, B-Steer, Virtual Convex, Scan Assistant, AutoDoppler, Elastography, Panoramic, DICOM, Directional Color Power Doppler, Speckle Reduction, 3D/4D, Tissue Doppler.
Logiq Forward series ultrasound machines are positioned as shared-service systems, although they, as the name suggests, are a step forward in features for abdominal, vascular, cardiac, musculoskeletal, OB/GYN, pediatric and small parts imaging. In other words they can do more than other shared-service machines in each application category such as:
- Hemodynamic imaging – B-Flow blood flow visualization and contrast agency detection, with time phase change
- Cardiac imaging – Curved AMM (Anatomical M-Mode), Auto EF, TVI (tissue velocity imaging) and Stress Echo for stress testing
- ObGyn – 3D/4D imaging to capture fetal behavior, SonoBiometry to perform key fetal biometry measurements automatically in seconds, and TUI to analyze fetal structure deformities
- Abdominal & Urology – Elastography to be used in many different tissues for a variety of applications including hepatic lesion characterization, renal lesion characterization, diffuse liver and renal disease evaluation, breast mass diagnosis, prostate cancer detection, thyroid lesion characterization and tendon imaging. Logiq Forward series systems in addition have E8Cs-RS endocavity probe for advanced Obgyn and urology applications and BE9CS-RS bi-plane probe, designed for prostate imaging.
What are the hardware and physical features on which to Compare GE Logiq V5 & GE Logiq F6? Some of the key discernible physical differences between Logiq V5 and logiq F8 are
- 8.4-inch touch-panel in Logiq F8 and
- monitor size (15” in Logiq V5 vs 19” Logiq F8)
Logiq F6 and F8 systems are very similar in almost all respects except the touch panel availability, monitor size (17” vs 19”), monitor rotation, overall system weight and optional port features.
In summary GE Logiq F8 ultrasound system combines excellent image qualities with advanced ultrasound imaging technologies in almost all application areas with a lightweight, small footprint, affordable ultrasound machine.
