SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Exo (pronounced “echo”), a pioneering medical imaging software and devices company, is partnering with Sana Kliniken AG, the leading integrated healthcare provider in the German-speaking region with over 120 facilities (including various outpatient medical centers and 44 hospitals), to bring its high-performance handheld ultrasound platform and artificial intelligence to more medical staff to enable real-time decisions that improve patient outcomes, streamline workflow inefficiencies, and lower costs.
Exo’s point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) technology will be evaluated and deployed in pilot projects at two Sana clinics this summer, starting in the emergency medicine, critical care, and cardiac departments.
“Our two clinics are the first in Germany to use Exo’s innovative solutions," said Dr. Jens Schick, Chief Operating Officer of Sana Kliniken AG.

Exo’s complete POCUS solution includes its upcoming high-performance handheld ultrasound device that delivers powerful imaging at a fraction of the cost of cart-based systems; Exo Works™, an intuitive ultrasound workflow solution that streamlines documentation and quality assurance all in one platform; and artificial intelligence and education to make ultrasound simpler, bolstering adoption with new users.
