Automated portable ultrasound machine for breast diseases diagnostics
San Francisco-based medical company iSono Health has created the ATUSA portable 3D breast ultrasound scanning system.
Because the scan is automatic, it can be used by specialists who are not in-house ultrasound technicians, such as paramedics.
The system uses artificial intelligence to help interpret scan results and make treatment decisions.
The ATUSA system provides automatic imaging of the entire breast, which will improve diagnosis for millions of women around the world through enhanced functionality and allow for shorter and more effective screenings.
The ATUSA™ system is the first automated, three-dimensional, portable breast ultrasound of its kind.
The ATUSA scanner attaches to an accessory that captures the entire breast volume, automatically scanning the surface of the gland with a linear transducer in just two minutes without the specialist's hands.
The software displays a real-time image during a scan, then reconstructs and displays three-dimensional volumetric ultrasound images in different planes, allowing the clinician to comment on and create reports based on their results.
The software is designed to fully integrate with various machine learning algorithms to help physicians identify and classify diagnostic findings.
The ATUSA system provides automatic breast imaging and is designed for hands-free imaging.
The image quality does not depend on the ultrasound operator's skill and allows even the nursing staff to operate the device.
The device also provides image reproducibility, which is crucial in breast imaging, and enables longitudinal monitoring of breast tissue changes among women from different groups.
This applies to monitoring high-risk patients, surveillance of benign lesions, and monitoring the response to treatment for truly affordable, personalized breast care.
