Ultrasound + AI has the power to help us know more and do more
With 81% of health systems in the US reporting radiology technologist shortages1 and a potential global shortfall of 10 million healthcare workers by 20302, it's never been more vital to support clinicians with AI-driven ultrasound.
Guided ultrasound
AI is helping users, from the most experienced to newer healthcare professionals, acquire quality diagnostic images

Guidance ultrasound opens the possibilities to acquire reliable, consistent, diagnostic-quality images and also capturing complex, complete ultrasound studies.



 

AI-enabled tools such as Caption AI and Caption Guidance provide cardiac scan guidance on the Vscan Air SL and the Venue family. This AI expands the possibility of full echocardiography at the point of care to patients who may not otherwise have access to ultrasound or may experience long wait times. 



 

With this AI-driven software, ultrasound users can capture cardiac images successfully. Real-time, turn-by-turn, on-screen guidance helps users capture diagnostic-quality images with fewer repeat scans, helping to reduce costs.

Workflow productivity
Reducing keystrokes and clicks helps drive productivity and efficiency

With increased demand for imaging services showing no sign of slowing down and a continued tight labor market influenced by heavy workloads and burnout, organizations are to looking for ways to ensure that time is spent on the highest-value tasks.



 

90% of sonographers have experienced symptoms of work-related musculoskeletal disorders,3 and these injuries have led up to over $120 billion yearly in direct and indirect costs for employers.4 That's why AI is a critical tool when it comes to saving time and clicks during scans. This not only increases productivity but also eases the wear and tear on clinicians by reducing clicks and automating certain repetitive tasks.5, 6

Clinical decision support
AI-driven knowledge that informs diagnosis and treatment to reduce costly clinical errors 

Ultrasound is especially vulnerable to operator variability between exams,7 in addition to challenges with inter-reader variability. For example, when evaluating a thyroid nodule to determine if a biopsy is needed, radiologists with comparable training and experience disagree with each other 25% of the time making their diagnosis. In fact, when presented the same case a month later, physicians disagree with themselves, changing their initial diagnosis nearly 20% of the time.7


 

AI-enabled ultrasound has the power to exponentially add to a clinician’s knowledge, potentially improving patient outcomes, increased throughput, and reduced costs because of fewer repeat scans.
