Solutions for every Stage in a Woman's Life
At GE Healthcare, we’re committed to developing
technologies that support maternal and infant
health, and enable earlier detection, more accurate
diagnoses, and less aggressive treatment plans for
women affected by cancer, heart disease, strokes
and other conditions.

Breast Health
|
GE pioneered many ultrasound, MRI and
mammography technologies used in
breast imaging today, including the first
commercially approved Full Field Digital
Mammography system. To date, more than
one million women in over 20 countries have
been imaged on our digital mammography
systems. Our breakthrough MRI technique,
VIBRANT, is another powerful new weapon
in the war against breast cancer. It enables
high-definition imaging of both breasts
in one patient visit for easier detection
and assessment of breast tissue anomalies.

OB/GYN Health
|
GE Healthcare offers several exclusive
technologies for OB/GYN imaging. Volume
Ultrasound delivers detailed information to
help in the assessment of fetal development
and heart exams. It’s also a valuable tool for
assisted reproductive techniques, and the
assessment of ovarian masses and uterine
fibroids. GE’s revolutionary MR-Guided
Focused Ultrasound uses high intensity
ultrasound beams to destroy fibroid tissue
under MR guidance. For the millions of
women with fibroids, it offers a welcome,
non-invasive alternative for symptom relief.
|
Bone Health
|
GE Healthcare is the world’s largest provider
of Bone Mineral Densitometry (BMD)
technology used to detect and diagnose
osteoporosis. Using our digital Lunar Prodigy
system, providers can assess both bone
density and body composition in one exam,
for faster diagnosis of patients affected by
or at risk for developing osteoporosis.
|
Maternal – Infant Health
|
From mother’s first OB appointment to
baby’s visits to the pediatrician, GE meets
the specialized needs of families across the
entire maternal-infant healthcare continuum.
Our Giraffe® family of developmentally
supportive microenvironments, for example,
combine advanced technology with
innovative design to promote healthy
outcomes for even the most intensively
ill infants.
|
Cardiovascular Health
|
GE’s commitment to Women’s Heart Health is
long-standing. Since cardiovascular disease
may present differently in women, our ECG
analysis program with gender-specific
interpretation was a real breakthrough. By
flagging the subtle ECG indications of acute
myocardial infarction in women, it helps
enable physicians to identify cardiac problems
with greater speed and confidence. GE’s
VividTM cardiovascular ultrasound system is
another valuable tool, providing detailed
information on LV function and cardiac
performance.
|
Information and Image
|
From imaging suite to patient care areas,
rapid access to patient data is essential in
women’s healthcare. Our Seno AdvantageTM
mammography workstation displays a
digital image within seconds to enable
quick verification. With Centricity® Physician
Office EMR, your patient’s digital records
are always with you at the point of care –
in the office or hospital.
