  "summary": "GE HealthCare has expanded its Vivid cardiovascular ultrasound portfolio with the addition of three new systems - Vivid Explorer, Vivid Advanced, and Vivid Focus - at the European Society of Cardiology Congress 2026 in Munich. Each system is designed to cater to different clinical environments, ranging from high-volume echo labs and routine interventional procedures to mid-size hospitals and cardiology practices. The new systems, along with the existing Vivid Pioneer ultra-premium and Vivid iq portable systems, all utilize the cSound software-based imaging architecture, which aims to optimize contrast, resolution, and tissue visualization. To further streamline echocardiography workflows, the company has also introduced AI-enabled tools such as AI Auto Measure 2D, Easy AutoEF, Easy AFI LV, and AI Cardiac Auto Doppler. These systems and the EchoPAC Software Only v211 analysis and reporting platform have received CE Mark approval in Europe, but are awaiting U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance and are not yet available for sale in the United States.",
