During this congress, Samsung will be showcasing the clinical values and efficiencies of the Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based diagnostic solutions through various scientific programs.

Samsung’s symposium will be held on September 18^th at 12:35 p.m. This event will also run online under the theme of “Samsung’s Advanced AI and Remote Diagnosis Solutions.” Prof. Julien Stirnemann (Necker Hospital, France) will deliver research results on the clinical values of two AI diagnostic solutions: BiometryAssist which measures the growth and condition of a fetus and HeartAssist which improves workflow when diagnosing a fetal heart.

Professor Antonia Testa (Scientific Director of the Center for Ultrasound in Gynecological Oncology “Class Ultrasound” of the Agostino Gemelli University Hospital, Rome, Italy) will be demonstrating her experience with SonoSync, a real-time ultrasound image-sharing solution during Samsung’s Symposium. She will be presenting the simplicity and benefits of image sharing as a second opinion by remotely accessing a HERA W10 system at Gemelli Hospital, Rome from the ISUOG venue in London.

“This will be a live demonstration of a patient scan, voice communication with a sonographer, and remote measurements executed in London. This advancement in ultrasound environment using SonoSync brings telesonography into reality,” said Professor Antonia Testa. “I believe Samsung’s forward-thinking technologies and advanced developments in ultrasound in recent years are quite impressive.”

In addition, Samsung will be hosting four onsite Hospitality Suite programs with lectures and live demonstrations for customers to experience high performance diagnostic solutions such as MV-Flow which is used to visualize the slow flow of microvascular structures and the existence of micro-blood-flow.

The onsite scientific programs, Samsung will display online webinars at six times during the congress through ISUOG’s virtual platform. More details on Samsung’s scientific programs can be found on the ISUOG website and the Samsung’s Healthcare website (www.samsunghealthcare.com).

Samsung will also showcase its premium ultrasound system for obstetrics and gynecology known as HERA W10 and V8 which systems includes Intelligent Assist (AI diagnostic solutions), as well as V7, high-end ultrasound systems that can be used in various medical specialties and also with premium AI diagnostic solutions.

As far as the name, the “V” in “V7” stands for “Versatile,” meaning that this system can be used in various medical fields such as obstetrics, gynecology, radiology, orthopedics, cardiology and more. The V7 hosts features and solutions seen on premium ultrasound systems.

※ The diagnostic solutions provided with V8 and V7 are the same, but there are some differences in their image resolution.

Kyu Tae Yoo, Senior Vice President, Head of Sales & Marketing Team of Samsung Medison stated “This is a very meaningful time for us as we share the clinical values of our ultrasound AI-based diagnostic tools and features in collaboration with so many prominent medical professionals. We will continuously proceed forward introducing diagnostic solutions for the medical professionals and patients.”

“It’s very meaningful to launch the V8, a new premium medical device that addresses many customer needs,” said Won-Chul Bang, Vice President, Head of Customer Experience Team, Samsung Medison. “We expect V8 to become a flagship product of premium ultrasound systems as it is uniquely designed to cover different medical specialties.”

V8’s “V” stands for “Versatile,” meaning that the advanced functions from premium ultrasound systems dedicated to specific departments such as obstetrics, radiology, orthopedics and cardiology have been implemented.

Several diagnostic assistance functions of a premium ultrasound system for obstetrics and gynecology include MV-Flow which is suitable for observing the presence of microvascular blood flow, low-velocity blood flow and LumiFlow which provides three-dimensional visualization of blood flow in a two-dimensional image, allowing the medical staff a more realistic assessment of the vascular structures and flow.

For radiology, V8 is equipped with S-Shearwave Imaging which provides information about tissue stiffness as a result of disease using ultrasonic transverse elasticity. V8 also features S-Fusion which allows synchronous alignment of medical images of ultrasound with one or more cross-sectional studies such as MRI which are instantly reconstructed in the corresponding plane.

On the other hand, it is also expected to be equipped with a NerveTrack which has been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as an AI medical device and can be used to treat musculoskeletal diseases that track nerve locations in pain areas in real time.

In addition, by introducing a 23.8″ LED monitor and a 14″ high-sensitivity touch panel, user convenience has been enhanced to perform various procedures.

The screen that automatically tracks the nerve’s location on the wrist in real time with the NerveTrack function is executed.
