Here are just a few examples of how GE is bringing you more: 

• Speckle Reduction Imaging (SRI) heightens the visibility of organs and lesions through improved contrast resolution and border detection while reducing artifact characteristics of ultrasound.
• CrossXBeamCRI™ (CRI) enhances tissue and border differentiation with an exclusive spatial compounding acquisition and processing technique.
• HD-Flow™ is a bi-directional power Doppler feature that enables a more sensitive vascular study and reduces the overwriting associated with standard color Doppler.

• Volume Contrast Imaging (VCI) allows for better assessment of size, margins and internal structures of lesions through maximized image quality in all three planes.
• Tomographic Ultrasound Imaging (TUI) makes analysis and documentation of dynamic studies easier by providing a simultaneous view of multiple slices of a volume data set.
• Spatio-Temporal Image Correlation (STIC) is an innovative technique that allows clinicians to
  quickly capture a full fetal heart cycle beating in real-time and save the volume for later analysis.
