GE Ultrasound Feature
Scan Assist Pro
WorkflowScan Assist Pro provides configurable, step-by-step exam protocols that guide sonographers through each phase of an ultrasound study. The system automates probe selection, imaging presets, measurement labels, and image capture sequences based on the selected protocol. Clinicians define their preferred workflows once, and the system enforces those steps for every operator. This standardization reduces training time for new staff and produces consistent, complete exams regardless of who performs the scan.
Key Benefits
Why Scan Assist Pro matters
30-50% exam time reduction on protocol-driven studies
Automated preset loading, image labeling, and measurement selection eliminate manual menu navigation. Clinicians at Bispebjerg Hospital documented 30-50% time savings on demanding vascular protocols after deploying Scan Assist Pro on the LOGIQ E10.
Identical exam quality from every sonographer
Protocol enforcement means a first-year sonographer follows the same steps as a 20-year veteran. Every required view is captured, every measurement is labeled correctly, and skipped steps are flagged before the exam closes.
Faster onboarding for new ultrasound staff
Step-by-step guidance reduces the learning curve for new hires. Instead of memorizing exam protocols from binder manuals, sonographers follow on-screen instructions that teach proper technique while producing complete studies from day one.
Accreditation-ready documentation without extra effort
Protocols enforce the view sequences and measurement sets that accreditation bodies require. Every exam automatically captures the required images in the correct order with proper labels, building a complete audit trail that simplifies lab accreditation reviews.
About Scan Assist Pro
Scan Assist Pro addresses one of the biggest sources of variability in ultrasound departments: operator-dependent exam execution. Each protocol is a customizable sequence of steps that specifies which probe to use, which imaging preset to load, what anatomical views to acquire, and which measurements to take. When a sonographer starts a protocol, the system walks them through each step, automatically adjusting gain, depth, and focus settings as the exam progresses. Image captures are labeled according to the protocol, and the system flags any skipped views before the exam can be closed. At Bispebjerg Hospital in Denmark, clinicians using Scan Assist Pro on the LOGIQ E10 reported 30-50% reductions in exam time for technically demanding studies like renal artery stenosis evaluation. The reduction comes from eliminating manual steps: no more scrolling through menus to select presets, no more typing image labels, and no more uncertainty about whether all required views have been captured. For multi-site practices or labs pursuing accreditation, Scan Assist Pro ensures every exam meets the same documentation standard.
