Canon Medical AI vs Ultromics EchoGo

Ultromics sells to echo labs, while Canon's AI sits in CT, MR and PET systems.

Ultromics EchoGo reads echocardiograms that a lab already runs. EchoGo Heart Failure flags HFpEF from one apical four-chamber clip in adults over 25 with an ejection fraction of 50% or more, and EchoGo Amyloidosis screens adults 65 and older with heart failure. The vendor cites 90.3% sensitivity and 86.1% specificity from FDA 510(k) K240013, and says findings return to PACS and EMR through DICOM workflows. Its site cites CPT Category III code 0932T for the Heart Failure tool and invites buyers to talk with an EchoGo expert in place of listing a price. A cardiology group that wants HFpEF flagged on echo it already runs is the Ultromics buyer.

Canon groups its AI under the Altivity name, which includes AiCE, PIQE super-resolution MRI and AIDR 3D. Olea Medical, bought by Toshiba Medical in 2015, files its own clearances, eight of them in openFDA. A neuroradiology group looking at Olea perfusion software is a Canon buyer.
