GE Vivid IQ

Preowned starting at$19,000

Portable cardiac imaging with the diagnostic depth of a full-size Vivid console. The Vivid IQ pairs cSound beamforming with AI-automated EF and strain analysis on a 5 kg laptop platform, backed by up to four hours of battery life for satellite clinics and mobile echo services. Leasing starting at $999/month.

  • cSound beamforming with TCI and ACE optimizationSoftware-defined architecture delivers uniform focusing across all depths without focal zone tradeoffs, producing consistent image quality from a 5 kg portable.
  • AI Auto Measure and Easy AFI in one clickAutomated ejection fraction and strain analysis reduce measurement time and inter-observer variability, keeping reporting consistent across operators and exam sites.
  • Up to 4-hour battery with smart cart expansionThe laptop console runs about one hour standalone; docking into the optional smart cart extends scan time to four hours and adds up to three additional probe ports.

All Features

AI-driven automatic Doppler gate placement and measurement that reduces keystrokes by up to 93% and produces consistent velocity readings across operators.

GE's dedicated off-cart analysis workstation for echocardiography post-processing, strain quantification, 3D/4D review, and structured reporting. Frees the ultrasound system for scanning while analysis continues on a separate PC.

One-click AI measurement of left ventricular ejection fraction using biplane Simpson's method from apical views. Delivers LVEF in under 5 seconds without ECG gating, reducing inter-observer variability.

AI-driven automated 2D and Doppler measurements for cardiac imaging that reduce manual caliper placement and improve measurement consistency across operators.

AI-automated left ventricular strain and ejection fraction analysis that delivers results in approximately 15 seconds from a single apical view acquisition.

Left ventricular opacification with ultrasound contrast agents for definitive endocardial border visualization in patients with suboptimal acoustic windows.

Guided exam protocols automate probe selection, preset adjustments, and image capture to reduce scan time by 30-50% and standardize results across operators.

Interactive 3D/4D image manipulation tool that lets clinicians rotate, slice, and reposition volume data in real time to examine anatomy from multiple planes without rescanning.

Frequently Asked Questions

GE Vivid IQ pricing depends on whether the system is new or preowned, the probes selected, cardiac software options, smart cart configuration, warranty/service coverage, delivery, and training. A configured quote should show the complete package - console, probes, software, warranty, and delivery timeline - so your team can compare purchase, lease, finance, trade-in, or rental options.

Yes. Standard Ultrasound can structure a GE Vivid IQ quote around purchase, financing, lease, rental, or trade-in options, depending on availability and your workflow. Many buyers compare monthly payment, short-term rental, preowned savings, and trade-in credit before requesting a quote.

GE uses the term Vivid iq Ultra Edition in its current product materials, but GE also states that Ultra Edition is not a separate product name; it refers to the 2022 release of the Vivid portfolio.

Yes. The GE Vivid IQ is a portable cardiovascular ultrasound system designed for echo exams in hospitals, medical offices, outreach clinics, bedside settings, and mobile echo workflows. It supports advanced cardiac imaging and AI-assisted measurement tools such as EF and strain analysis when configured with the appropriate software and probes.

The GE Vivid IQ is a strong fit when your team needs cardiac imaging in more than one room or location. It is especially relevant for cardiology offices, outreach clinics, satellite clinics, bedside exams, and mobile echo services that need Vivid-family cardiac tools in a laptop-style platform rather than a full console.

Choose the Vivid IQ when portability and cardiovascular imaging are the priority. Consider the Vivid T9 when you want a compact cart-based cardiovascular system, the Vivid E95 when you need a flagship high-volume echo-lab console, and Venue Go when your priority is portable point-of-care or general imaging rather than cardiac-focused echo.

The Vivid IQ is an ultra-portable, laptop-style cardiovascular ultrasound system listed at about 5 kg for the console. GE states that battery scan time can reach up to four hours on a cart or up to one hour with the console only, depending on operating mode and battery status.

The GE Vivid IQ console has one active probe port. When docked with the optional smart cart, the system can support up to four total probe ports, which helps practices keep cardiac, vascular, TEE, or specialty probes connected during busy echo workflows.

The GE Vivid IQ supports a broad GE transducer portfolio, including phased array, linear, convex, microconvex, endocavity, TEE, and specialty probes depending on configuration. Common options on the Standard Ultrasound page include M5Sc-RS for adult cardiac, 3SC-RS, 6S-RS, 12S-RS, 9L-RS, 12L-RS, 6VT-D, and other cardiac, vascular, pediatric, abdominal, OB/GYN, and MSK probes.

Yes, when properly configured, the Vivid IQ supports advanced cardiovascular workflows such as 4D TTE/TEE, full-volume imaging, triplane imaging, and TEE probe options. Buyers should confirm the exact probes, software, and cardiac packages in the quote, especially for structural heart, TEE, pediatric cardiac, or interventional echo workflows.

Available AI-assisted tools may include Easy AFI / Easy AFI LV for EF and strain, Auto EF, AI Auto Measure, and Auto Doppler, depending on software configuration. GE says its AI-powered tools help reduce exam time and keystrokes, and Standard Ultrasound lists Auto Doppler, Auto EF 3.0, AI Auto Measure, and Easy AFI 3.0 on the Vivid IQ page.

Yes. Standard Ultrasound lists DICOM 3.0 support for Store, Print, Worklist, and Structured Reports, plus EchoPAC compatibility. GE also describes EchoPAC as supporting analysis and review of Vivid ultrasound data and DICOM images, with DICOM SR measurement transfer for integration with reporting systems and EMRs.

Standard Ultrasound describes its Vivid IQ support as including a full GE warranty, dedicated service coordination, and a direct support line. The specific warranty term is confirmed for the exact new, preowned, probe, and software configuration in the quote.

Standard Ultrasound says it coordinates nationwide delivery, on-site installation, EMR integration, staff training, and ongoing support. Its training page also says GE ultrasound purchases include training options such as in-person, remote, and on-demand education. Your quote should specify delivery timing, installation needs, training format, and support contacts.

Ask Standard Ultrasound to confirm the written trial or return terms for your exact Vivid IQ configuration before purchase. The product page promotes a 30-day trial, but the return policy says returns generally must be initiated within 30 days, products must be unused and in original packaging, and custom-configured products or special-order probes may be non-returnable.
