The Kosmos platform update includes FDA-cleared presets for obstetrics, gynecology and billable vascular workflows designed for point-of-care use.
EchoNous has released a software update for its Kosmos AI-enhanced point-of-care ultrasound platform, adding advanced obstetrics, gynecology, and vascular imaging capabilities previously available only on cart-based systems.
The iOS 5.0 software update, available now on the Apple App Store, introduces US Food and Drug Administration-cleared presets that enable clinicians to perform quantitative measurements and billable studies at the bedside in emergency medicine, labor and delivery, and global health settings.
The new obstetrics features allow clinicians to perform full biometry including gestational sac, crown-rump length, and femur length measurements for pregnancy dating and fetal viability assessment. Advanced gynecology tools enable precise evaluation of the uterus and ovaries, including measurement of cysts, masses, and bladder volume.
“With this expansion, Kosmos is now more capable than ever, bridging the gap between ultra-portable tools and the robust requirements of specialists,” says Matt Wall, vice president of global marketing at EchoNous, in a release. “Whether it is a midwife in a rural clinic needing accurate pregnancy dating or a mobile sonographer performing a full vascular study on the go, we are delivering the specific tools these clinicians need to do their jobs effectively.”
Vascular Workflow Targets Mobile Imaging Market
The update includes a new billable vascular workflow with reporting packages for carotid, lower extremity venous, and aorta examinations. The system incorporates standard vascular annotations and measurements into DICOM Structured Reporting, automating documentation processes for mobile providers and enabling physician-ordered billable studies.
The Redmond, Washington-based company designed the updates to serve clinicians across different care settings, from tertiary hospitals to resource-limited clinics. The platform combines portable ultrasound hardware with AI-enhanced imaging software to deliver cart-grade diagnostic capabilities in a handheld format.
The Kosmos platform uses artificial intelligence to enhance image quality and guide clinical workflows, positioning itself between traditional handheld ultrasound devices and full-sized cart-based systems. The new capabilities expand the platform’s utility for specialists who require detailed measurements and documentation for clinical decision-making and billing purposes.
