GE HealthCare announced the integration of Caption Health’s AI into its Vscan Air SL handheld ultrasound system in early April, highlighting the software’s capabilities to offer clinicians real-time, step-by-step guidance to capture diagnostic-quality images and automated ejection fraction estimation to help inform clinical decisions across cardiac settings. Through its AI enhanced handheld ultrasound offering, GE HealthCare aims to lower the threshold for healthcare professionals to be able to capture cardiac images and to improve patient outcomes through earlier detection of heart disease.

This integration pushes GE HealthCare further to the forefront of the handheld ultrasound market and has the potential to have a significant impact on patient care pathways.
