US FDA Clears Smart Mobile-Connected High-Resolution Bladder Scanner

The Uscan is compatible with the Android operating system, features built-in WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, and is interoperable with Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems. The device does not require annual calibration, and provides real-time user guidance.

The Uscan can acquire up to 256 bladder slices, and uses algorithms to actively recognize bladder contours in 3D providing accurate volume measurements. The device can also be used for real-time ultrasound imaging of the bladder stones, gallbladder, prostate, pelvic floor, kidneys, for the placement of catheters, and for rapid visual tracking, and observation. The device can also be used in emergency departments, maternity wards, for pediatrics, oncology, rehabilitation, in home nursing, and in geriatrics.

CEO of Signostics, Kevin Goodwin, said, “Uscan doesn’t just scan; it sees – providing intelligent urologic visualization by leveraging science from current-day computer vision algorithms aimed at more efficient and confident point-of-care clinical decision-making. Uscan will exceed historical industry standards for bladder volume measurement accuracy yet will also enable use for other urologic imaging needs, reducing the delays and expense of engaging specialized ultrasound equipment or sonographers.”
