GE Venue 40 Ultrasound System

GE Venue 40 ultrasound  delivers precision and exceptional image quality in an affordable, proven-reliable ultrasound system. Three probes, always connected, let you choose and perform a variety of exams easily and quickly. An intuitive touch interface makes Venue 40 easy to use. It boots up fast and recharges quickly.

GE Venue 40 ultrasound was one of the first true tablet-style ultrasound machines. And while most portable ultrasound machines are labeled as “hand carried”, this is one of the few that can actually live up to that label.

This is a well-built, popular color Doppler ultrasound. As you’ll see in the video review of this machine, it’s got a friendly user interface, very good image quality and an affordable price for a remanufactured Venue 40 ultrasound machine.

This machine is designed specifically for the “point-of-care” ultrasound market, also known as “bedside ultrasound”. These users include MSK, needle guidance/vascular access, anesthesia, emergency medicine, interventional and obstetric departments.

GE Venue 40 ultrasound features and use

I found the GE Venue™ 40™ ultrasound easy to learn and use. There are some small things that take getting used to, but overall it’s one of the more straightforward ultrasounds out there. (In the coming weeks, I’ll have a training series featuring the Venue 40 that walks you through the entire system.)

It boots quickly and requires no further input to begin scanning. Most functions are performed using a stylus or hard keys along the side and bottom of the machine. The stylus is most often used for annotations, measurements, and typing comments or patient information.

GE Venue™ 40™ Color and Power Doppler are standard on the imaging machine, as are Speckle Reduction and CrossXBeam. You won’t find a way to activate SRI nor CrossXBeam, they’re apparently always on. This is largely an undocumented feature, but very important for you to note because these technologies really improve image quality and make a more compelling argument in favor of purchasing this refurbished ultrasound machine.

Images are stored on an easy-to-remove SD card, and images can be taken directly off the card to transfer to your computer. If you purchase the optional cart, there are multiple ports to attach other storage devices.

Imaging presets and pre-programmed applications are included for a variety of applications, including vascular access, MSK, interventional, anesthesia, and emergency medicine. Some models included OB/GYN and cardiac, but these are in a limited capacity.
