Imaging
Featured imaging
GE has been the world’s leader in diagnostic imaging technologies since the invention of the modern medical X-ray tube in 1913.
Researchers in the Imaging Technology Organization have helped pioneer new generations of X-ray, CT and MR imagers, along with specific groundbreaking developments such as digital X-ray detectors and digital ultrasound scanners. GE continues to be at the forefront of exciting breakthroughs in imaging, as we explore and develop new ways for clinicians to see inside the human body. Our vision is for the development of breakthrough technologies that shift the healthcare paradigm from “see and treat” to “predict and prevent.”
Our scientists are also exploring new applications for imaging beyond healthcare, including the inspection of industrial components such as engines, motors, and critical components that keep worldwide commerce from slowing down.
Magnets That “See” Instead of “Stick”
The Magnetic Resonance Imaging Laboratory is focused on developing new diagnostic imaging techniques, MR systems, and hardware.
