Save time

4-minute exams performed by experts at the bedside offering a reliable assessment of cardiac anatomy & function.1

Lower costs

61% of patients who would ordinarily have been referred for a full echo exam following physical exam, were sent home instead because of what Vscan exams revealed.2

Accelerate treatment decisions Conduct focused exams

Patient diagnosis and management were altered in nearly 50% of cases where cardiology fellows and cardiologists suspected acute cardiac dysfunction.3

Store, share and collaborate

Vscan Extend offers a flexible wireless workflow, making it easy to send images and data wherever you need them to be stored or shared.

Informed decisions

Improve decision-making during cardiology consultations
