GE HealthCare (Nasdaq: GEHC) announced that it launched the new Versana Premier, its latest offering from the Versana family of ultrasound systems.
Versana Premier offers automation and AI-enabled productivity tools to improve workflow. It also has clinical features designed to enhance clinical efficiency and accuracy. Altogether, the company says it delivers an effortless user experience and helps clinicians best meet their patient needs.
GE HealthCare designed Versana Premier to meet the multi-purpose needs of healthcare professionals across diverse clinical specialties and care areas. Those include general practice, OBGYN, musculoskeletal (MSK) and cardiology.
Versana Premier is powered by VisionBoost architecture and accompanied by high-quality probes. It features XDclear technology, first-class display technology and a new imaging engine. GE HealthCare says it provides exceptional image quality with faster speed and its Whizz feature optimizes images in real time.
The company expects to begin shipments for the FDA-cleared Versana Premier system in the U.S. later this month.

Ultrasound is emerging as a key tool in these clinical settings, enabling accelerated diagnoses and improving patient outcomes and satisfaction,” said Phil Rackliffe, president and CEO of Ultrasound and Image Guided Therapies, GE HealthCare. “Versana Premier is equipped with advanced automated workflow and productivity tools, including educational resources, that can support these clinicians who are often the frontline of disease identification and diagnosis for their patients.”
