Solutions for every stage in a woman's life

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.
