Dear Customer,
GE Ultrasound has been collaborating
with the clinical community to provide unsurpassed clinical performance
and enhanced productivity across the entire LOGIQ product line.
The LOGIQ 700 Expert Series
has been designed to keep you at the forefront of ultrasound technology,
both now and in the future. It employs the GE Continuum philosophy. We
are happy to inform you that we have migrated some of these advanced technologies
to our other products like LOGIQ 500 and LOGIQ 400.
The performance and flexibility
(in upgradation) of LOGIQ á 100 has been acknowledged by eminent sonologists.
To add to this, we now have brought in the benefits of high end digital
technology to Black & White users through the LOGIQ 200 PRO - the only
B&W machine with 48 channels and a fully digital platform. It’s our commitment
to provide you with continuing excellence in long-term clinical performance,
value and investment protection through planned upgrades. To this end
we have been using the concept of technology migration wherein we transfer
our annual technology breakthroughs through the LOGIQ family of products.
In the current financial year,
we have installed over 1000 ultrasound machines in India, a feat which
has been possible only with your support. This only goes to prove our
unquestionable leadership in this field.
This issue of IMAGES is meant
to thank you for your support and patronage enabling us to cross many
milestones in Ultrasound and more to come in the future.
