Wimbledon and the Logiq E9

Pictured are consultant sport physician Dr Ian McCurdie, GE Healthcare application manager ultrasound UK&I Karen Walton, consultant radiologists specialising in MSK imaging Dr Christine Heron and Dr Andrew Hine and consultant in sport and exercise medicine Dr Philip Bell.

At this year’s Wimbledon Championships, GE Healthcare’s Logiq E9 ultrasound system was on hand in the sophisticated medical centre to ensure injuries to tennis players were caught early.  Also on hand were some of the leading authorities in sports medicine.

Dr Hine later wrote to GE, saying: “Very many thanks again for all your help and GE’s support over the past month.  Everyone really appreciates the time and effort you put in and also the fantastic quality of the ultrasound machines.  The sports physicians, physiotherapists and trainers not to mention the players, were most impressed with the ultrasound during the tournament.”
