																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Samsung C&T (SCT), Samsung Electronics (SEC), and GRAIL, Inc. (Nasdaq: GRAL), today announced they have signed a binding Letter of Intent for a strategic collaboration to bring GRAIL’s Galleri<sup>Ⓡ</sup> multi-cancer early detection (MCED) test to key Asian markets. SCT and SEC have also agreed to invest $110 million into GRAIL, a healthcare company whose mission is to detect cancer early when it can be cured, at a price of $70.05 per share of common stock.<sup>1</sup></p>
<p>“Guided by its commitment to advancing next-generation bio-technologies and improving quality of life, Samsung C&T has continuously invested in innovative companies. The collaboration with GRAIL represents a significant new step—moving beyond investment to a strategic business partnership that provides Samsung with a strong foothold for expanding into the cancer screening field and delivering one of these promising technologies to customers in South Korea and across Asia.” said Jaywoo Kim, Executive Vice President of Life Science Business at Samsung C&T.</p>
<p>Subject to final execution of definitive agreements, GRAIL and SCT will work as exclusive partners to commercialize the Galleri test in South Korea, with a possible extension into other Asian geographies, including Japan and Singapore. SCT will undertake key activities to drive adoption of Galleri . Initially, tests will be performed in GRAIL’s clinical laboratory in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.</p>
<p>“We look forward to partnering with Samsung to bring multi-cancer early detection to Asia, beginning in South Korea,” said Sir Harpal Kumar, President, International Business & Biopharma, at GRAIL. “Samsung’s significant equity investment strengthens our balance sheet and provides further cash runway as we advance through key milestones to secure reimbursement for Galleri in the U.S. and key international markets.”</p>
<p>In addition, SEC and GRAIL intend to explore potential strategic and operational collaborations such as supporting longitudinal genomic-lifestyle clinical research, and the integration of SEC’s health data platform with GRAIL’s technologies and data.</p>
<p>“Our investment in and strategic cooperation with GRAIL is part of our vision to improve the health of billions of people. A potential collaboration with GRAIL could allow for the integration of our AI, our digital care platform, and device ecosystem with GRAIL’s clinical genetic data and technology, which could allow us to provide a level of personalization for our users to help them better understand their health,” said Hon Pak, Senior Vice President and Head of Digital Health Team, Mobile eXperience Business, at Samsung Electronics.</p>
<p>The terms of the collaborations are set forth in the term sheets between the parties. Definitive agreements will be negotiated in good faith pursuant to the term sheet and are intended to be entered into in early 2026. Commercial operations will begin soon after execution. Within South Korea, and potentially Japan and Singapore, GRAIL will partner with SCT as its sole distributor, subject to certain requirements, and GRAIL’s Galleri test will be the exclusive MCED test distributed by SCT.</p>
<p>The investment is subject to execution of the definitive collaboration agreements between the parties, as well as customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. The investment is expected to close in early 2026.</p>

<p><span style="font-size: small"><strong>About Galleri<sup>®</sup></strong></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small">The Galleri multi-cancer early detection test is a proactive tool to screen for cancer. With a simple blood draw, Galleri can detect more than 50 types of cancer before symptoms appear — when they can be easier to treat and are potentially curable<sup>2</sup>. Galleri is the only available MCED test with demonstrated performance in patients screened for cancer<sup>2,</sup>*. The Galleri test doubles the number of cancers detected when added to standard of care cancer screening, and has the lowest false positive rate of any MCED test<sup>1,2,3,4,</sup>**. When a cancer signal is found, Galleri provides a cancer signal of origin with high accuracy to help guide an efficient diagnostic work-up<sup>4,5,6</sup>. The Galleri test requires a prescription from a licensed healthcare provider and should be used in addition to recommended cancer screenings such as mammography, colonoscopy, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test, or cervical cancer screening. The Galleri test is recommended for adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those aged 50 or older.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small">For more information, visit <a href="https://www.galleri.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">galleri.com</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small">* The Galleri test performance metrics were derived from the outcomes of an interventional clinical study of patients presenting for screening without clinical suspicion of cancer, a study population that reflects the intended use population.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small">** Test performance metrics do not represent results of a head-to-head comparative study. Separate studies have different designs, objectives, and participant populations, which limits the ability to draw conclusions about comparative performance.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small"><strong>Important Galleri Safety Information</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small">The Galleri test is recommended for use in adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those age 50 or older. The test does not detect all cancers and should be used in addition to routine cancer screening tests recommended by a healthcare provider. The Galleri test is intended to detect cancer signals and predict where in the body the cancer signal is located. Use of the test is not recommended in individuals who are pregnant, 21 years old or younger, or undergoing active cancer treatment.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small">Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider in the context of medical history, clinical signs, and symptoms. A test result of No Cancer Signal Detected does not rule out cancer. A test result of Cancer Signal Detected requires confirmatory diagnostic evaluation by medically established procedures (e.g., imaging) to confirm cancer.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small">If cancer is not confirmed with further testing, it could mean that cancer is not present or testing was insufficient to detect cancer, including due to the cancer being located in a different part of the body. False positive (a cancer signal detected when cancer is not present) and false negative (a cancer signal not detected when cancer is present) test results do occur. <strong>Rx only.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small"><strong>Laboratory/Test Information</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small">The GRAIL clinical laboratory is certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small">(CLIA) and accredited by the College of American Pathologists. The Galleri test was developed — and its performance characteristics were determined — by GRAIL. The Galleri test has not been cleared or approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The GRAIL clinical laboratory is regulated under CLIA to perform high-complexity testing. The Galleri test is intended for clinical purposes.</span></p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At Galaxy Unpacked 2025 on July 9, Samsung Electronics unveiled its latest Galaxy Z series devices and wearables — pushing the boundaries of foldable design and connected wellness experiences. These innovations mark the next step in the company’s mission to deliver meaningful, user-centered technology, with Galaxy AI and digital health emerging as key pillars of the journey ahead.</p>
<p>To explore these themes further, Samsung hosted two panels at the Galaxy Tech Forum on July 10 in Brooklyn. Samsung Newsroom joined industry leaders and executives to examine how ambient intelligence and advanced health technologies are shaping the future of mobile innovation.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080">(Panel One) The Next Vision of AI: Ambient Intelligence</span></h3>
<div id="attachment_163555" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-163555" class="size-full wp-image-163555" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2025-Galaxy-Tech-Forum_main1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="603" /><p id="caption-attachment-163555" class="wp-caption-text">▲ (From left) Moderator Sabrina Ortiz, Jisun Park, Mindy Brooks and Dr. Vinesh Sukumar</p></div>
<p>The first panel, “The Next Vision of AI: Ambient Intelligence,” explored how multimodal capabilities are enabling the continued evolution of AI in everyday life — blending into user interactions in ways that feel intuitive, proactive and nearly invisible. Panelists discussed the smartphone’s evolving role, the importance of platform integration and the power of cross-industry collaboration to deliver secure, personalized intelligence at scale.</p>
<p>Jisun Park, Corporate Executive Vice President and Head of Language AI Team, Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics, opened the conversation by reflecting on Galaxy AI’s rapid adoption. Since the launch of the Galaxy S25 series in January, more than 70% of users have engaged with Galaxy AI features. He then turned the discussion to the next frontier, ambient intelligence — AI that is deeply personal, predictive and ever-present.</p>
<div id="attachment_163545" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-163545" class="size-full wp-image-163545" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2025-Galaxy-Tech-Forum_main2.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="622" /><p id="caption-attachment-163545" class="wp-caption-text">▲ Jisun Park from Samsung Electronics</p></div>
<p>Samsung sees ambient intelligence as AI that is so seamlessly integrated into daily life it becomes second nature. The company is committed to democratizing Galaxy AI to 400 million devices by the end of 2025.</p>
<p>This vision builds on insights from a yearlong collaboration with London-based research firm Symmetry, which revealed that 60% of users want their phones to anticipate needs without prompts — based on daily habits.</p>
<p>“Some see AI as the start of a ‘post-smartphone’ era, but we see it differently,” said Park. “We’re building a future where your devices don’t just respond — they become smarter to anticipate, see and work quietly in the background to make life feel a little more effortless.”</p>
<p>Mindy Brooks, Vice President of Android Consumer Product and Experience at Google, discussed how multimodal AI is moving beyond reactive response to deeper understanding of user intent across inputs like text, vision and voice. Google’s Gemini is designed to be intelligently aware and anticipatory — tuned to individual preferences and routines for assistance that feels natural.</p>
<div id="attachment_163544" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-163544" class="size-full wp-image-163544" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2025-Galaxy-Tech-Forum_main3.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="632" /><p id="caption-attachment-163544" class="wp-caption-text">▲ Mindy Brooks from Google</p></div>
<p>“Through close collaboration with Samsung, Gemini works seamlessly across its devices and connects with first-party apps to provide helpful and personalized responses,” she said.</p>
<p>Dr. Vinesh Sukumar, Vice President of Product Management at Qualcomm Technologies emphasized that as AI becomes more personalized, there is more information than ever that needs to be protected.</p>
<p>“For us, privacy, performance and personalization go hand in hand — they’re not competing priorities but co-equal standards,” he said.</p>
<div id="attachment_163553" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-163553" class="size-full wp-image-163553" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2025-Galaxy-Tech-Forum_main5.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="632" /><p id="caption-attachment-163553" class="wp-caption-text">▲ Dr. Vinesh Sukumar from Qualcomm Technologies</p></div>
<p>Both Brooks and Dr. Sukumar reinforced the importance of tight integration across platforms and hardware.</p>
<p>“Our work with Samsung prioritizes secure, on-device intelligence so that users know where their data is and who controls it,” said Dr. Sukumar.</p>
<div id="attachment_163554" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-163554" class="size-full wp-image-163554" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2025-Galaxy-Tech-Forum_main4.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="617" /><p id="caption-attachment-163554" class="wp-caption-text">▲ The AI panel at Galaxy Tech Forum</p></div>
<p>Moderator Sabrina Ortiz, senior editor at ZDNET, closed the session with a discussion on AI privacy. Panelists agreed that trust, transparency and user control must underpin the entire AI experience.</p>
<p>“When it comes to building more agentic AI, our priority is to ensure we’re fostering smarter, more personalized and more meaningful assistance across our device ecosystem,” said Brooks.</p>

<h3><span style="color: #000080">(Panel Two) The Next Chapter of Health: Scaling Prevention and Connected Care</span></h3>
<p>The second panel, “The Next Chapter of Health: Scaling Prevention and Connected Care,” focused on how technology can bridge the gap between wellness and clinical care — making health insights more connected, proactive and usable for individuals, healthcare providers and digital health solution partners. Panelists explored how the convergence of clinical data, at-home monitoring and AI is reshaping the modern healthcare experience.</p>
<div id="attachment_163552" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-163552" class="size-full wp-image-163552" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2025-Galaxy-Tech-Forum_main6.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="596" /><p id="caption-attachment-163552" class="wp-caption-text">▲ (From left) Moderator Dr. Hon Pak, Mike McSherry, Dr. Rasu Shrestha and Jim Pursley</p></div>
<p>Health data is often siloed across systems, resulting in inefficiencies and gaps in care. Combined with rising rates of chronic illness, an aging population and ongoing clinician shortages, the result is a system under pressure to deliver timely, effective care.</p>
<div id="attachment_163551" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-163551" class="size-full wp-image-163551" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2025-Galaxy-Tech-Forum_main7.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="634" /><p id="caption-attachment-163551" class="wp-caption-text">▲ Dr. Hon Pak from Samsung Electronics</p></div>
<p>“Patients and consumers around the world are asking us to hear them, to know them, to truly understand them,” said moderator Dr. Hon Pak, Senior Vice President and Head of Digital Health Team at Samsung Electronics. “And I believe this is the opportunity we have with Samsung, Xealth and partners like Hinge and Advocate. Together, we are creating a connected ecosystem where healthcare can truly make a difference — not just in the life of a patient, but in the life of a person.”</p>
<p>Samsung is addressing this challenge through technological innovation and its recent acquisition of Xealth, a leading digital health platform with a network of more than 500 hospitals and 70 digital health solution providers. Through Xealth, Samsung plans to connect wearable data and insights from Samsung Health into clinical workflows — delivering a more unified and seamless healthcare experience.</p>
<div id="attachment_163550" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-163550" class="size-full wp-image-163550" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2025-Galaxy-Tech-Forum_main8.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="619" /><p id="caption-attachment-163550" class="wp-caption-text">▲ Mike McSherry from Xealth</p></div>
<p>“This [phone], plus your devices — the watch, the ring — are going to replace the standalone blood pressure monitor, the pulse oximeter, a variety of different devices,” said Mike McSherry, founder and CEO of Xealth. “It’s going to be one packaged solution, and that’s going to simplify care.”</p>
<p>This collaboration is designed to empower hospitals with real-time insights and help prevent chronic conditions through early detection and continuous monitoring with wearable devices.</p>
<div id="attachment_163549" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-163549" class="size-full wp-image-163549" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2025-Galaxy-Tech-Forum_main9.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="658" /><p id="caption-attachment-163549" class="wp-caption-text">▲ Dr. Rasu Shrestha from Advocate Health</p></div>
<p>“The reality is that with all of the challenges that exist in healthcare, it is not any one entity that can heroically go in and save healthcare. It really takes an ecosystem,” said Dr. Rasu Shrestha, Executive Vice President and Chief Innovation & Commercialization Officer at Advocate Health. “That’s part of the reason why I’m so excited about Xealth and Samsung — and partners like us — really coming together to solve for this challenge. Because it is about Samsung enabling it. It’s more of an open ecosystem, a curated ecosystem.”</p>
<p>The panel spotlighted the growing shift from hospital-based care to care at home — and the opportunities enabled by Samsung’s expanding ecosystem of connected devices. Data from wearables, including those equipped with Samsung’s BioActive Sensor technology, can provide high-quality input for AI-driven insights.</p>
<p>Paired with Samsung’s SmartThings connectivity and wide portfolio of smart home devices, the company is uniquely positioned to support remote health monitoring and treatment from home.</p>

<p>With over 25 years of experience in the medical field and now as Head of Digital Health team at Samsung Electronics, I spend a lot of time contemplating how technology can truly drive progress in healthcare, rather than being just another innovation for innovation’s sake. That’s why I’m very excited about AI as it offers new ways to address many of society’s health problems by simplifying complexity and at scale.</p>
<p>In our ongoing work to reimagine healthcare, Samsung is leveraging advanced AI algorithms and extensive technical expertise to develop solutions like Energy Score. This feature quantifies physical and mental energy levels through multiple health indicators including sleep, heart health and physical activity. Our vision is to include more comprehensive metrics like nutrition, mental health and additional mobile usage patterns to provide a holistic view of users’ health status, powered by AI.</p>
<p>AI holds great promise for early disease prevention through analyzing patterns and behaviors, detecting abnormalities, and even predicting potential health issues. By combining our long-standing sensor innovations with AI leadership, we aim to elevate our capabilities in preventing diseases, beyond sleep apnea and expanding to cardio-metabolic conditions. In particular, blood glucose is a big area of focus for us, and Samsung has been working to develop a sensor algorithm that predicts early signs of diabetes — along with non-invasive blood glucose monitoring technology and continuous glucose monitoring-integrated nutrition coaching.</p>
<p>Our goal is to support proactive health management, lowering healthcare burdens on individuals, families and communities at large. I strongly believe that AI will revolutionize the digital health industry and simplify the wellness journey for everyone. As a global tech leader, Samsung is uniquely equipped to make this a reality with our mix of technology innovations and a growing ecosystem of partners.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An image that shows the capability of Samsung’s ultrasound technology has taken to the mainstage of one of the leading academic journals by gracing its cover as Picture of the Month for October. The clinical fetal echocardiography image is being featured by Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology (UOG), a title which specializes in women’s healthcare.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-94843" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Samsung-Ultrasound_main-0.jpg" alt="" width="705" height="470" /></p>
<p>UOG is the official journal published by the International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology (ISUOG). The image that the publication selected represents a breakthrough for Samsung Medison, a global medical equipment company and an affiliate of Samsung Electronics. Its fetal echocardiography technology called 5D Heart Color<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> allows a precise diagnosis of congenital heart disease.</p>
<p>The clinical image was obtained from a 26-week fetus with hypoplastic left heart and coarctation of the aorta, in which nine standard fetal echocardiography views with automatic labeling were displayed on a single screen.</p>
<p>The story behind the image can be found in a research paper led by Prof. Roberto Romero, Chief of the Perinatology Research Branch of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD)/National Institutes of Health in the U.S., and Prof. Lami Yeo, M.D., from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit, U.S.</p>
<p>According to the research, the Picture of the Month illustrates how the cardiac diagnostic planes shown by 5D Heart Color<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> (i.e. color Doppler FINE – Fetal Intelligent Navigation Echocardiography) allowed a precise diagnosis of hypoplastic left heart with coarctation of the aorta, and that such planes demonstrated evidence of abnormal fetal cardiac anatomy and hemodynamic flow.</p>
<p>The publication stated, “The characteristic features of this congenital heart defect were visualized in the seven echocardiography views. In the four-chamber view, the left side of the heart was severely hypoplastic with absent flow through the atretic mitral valve, and the aortic arch view showed a very narrow transverse aortic arch (coarctation) with reversed color Doppler flow in this area and the isthmus.”</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-94841" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Samsung-Ultrasound_main.jpg" alt="" width="705" height="601" /></p>
<p>Samsung’s 5D Heart Color<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> provides nine different fetal echocardiography views containing clinically useful information about cardiac structure and function, including the three vessels and trachea view, four-chamber view, left and right ventricular outflow tract views, aortic arch view, and four others. In cases of congenital heart disease, since abnormal fetal cardiac anatomy and hemodynamic flow characteristics are depicted, this enhances the diagnostic potential of the technology. In addition, there is reduced operator dependency, and examination of the fetal heart is standardized and simplified.</p>
<p>As 5D Heart Color<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> marks the second time Samsung Medison’s technology has been selected as Picture of the Month, (The company’s Crystal Vue<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> also gained the honor in 2016) it’s an illustration of how Samsung Medison is continuing to establish its brand power in the global women’s health industry by providing technology with clinical value to medical professionals.</p>
<p>“It is exciting to see 5D Heart Color<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> is being featured on the front cover of UOG, especially since the diagnostic accuracy of 5D Heart<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> was presented at last month’s World Congress on Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology,” said Insuk Song, Vice President of the Health & Medical Equipment of Samsung Electronics. “Samsung will continue to focus on developing medical technology that can improve the detection of fetal congenital heart disease and contribute to saving more lives.”</p>

<h3><span style="color: #000080">Digital Radiography (DR)</span></h3>
<p><em>GM85 [</em><em>FDA 510(k) cleared November 17, 2016]</em></p>
<ul>
<li>Easy Navigating with Compact Design: With 555mm narrow width and weighing in at a light 349kg, the GM85 allows easy access around tight spaces, even in elevators. A collapsible column gives users clear visibility when moving the system and broadens access to smaller spaces. Adaptive soft-driving control and front-bumper sensor also help make navigation safer.</li>
<li>Optimized Workflow with Enhanced Usability: SID (Source to Image Distance) Guide supports detailed device positioning with multiple SID settings. S-Align displays the detector’s angle to the THU (Tube Head Unit) for precise alignment to enhance image quality. Quick-positioning allows handle-free, precise body movement by simple button clicks on the THU and optimizes workflow, enabling users to save time.</li>
<li>Advanced Imaging Technology for Superior Image Quality: S-Vue, the advanced imaging engine, enhances image sharpness and clarity. SimGrid provides high-quality images without using a conventional grid, reducing scatter radiation effects. Also, radiographers can lower retake rates as S-Vue eliminates alignment errors that often occur with a conventional grid.</li>
</ul>
<p><em>GC85A (Advanced Applications) adds new features to radiography workflows:</em></p>
<ul>
<li>Fast Stitching: Our upgraded stitching technology reduces process time by 31% compared to the original GC85A. Increased process speed means radiographers receive exam images more quickly. Fast stitching helps lessen the burden on patients who find it difficult to stand for an extended period of time and leave the x-ray room faster than before.</li>
<li>SimGrid: This feature streamlines workflow because it operates without a portable grid, reducing operator wrist overload. SimGrid also eliminates alignment errors that often occur with portable grids, reducing retake rates and increasing patient satisfaction.</li>
<li>Bone Suppression: Clarity of soft tissue is improved when suppressing the appearance of bones in chest images.</li>
</ul>
