Clarius Marks Ten Year Anniversary

When Clarius founder, Laurent Pelissier met with another ultrasound industry veteran Dave Willis 10 years ago, he had the glimmer of an idea for an ultrasound system that could be carried in a clinician’s pocket. By the end of their dinner together, they had come up with a rough sketch for a wireless ultrasound system on the back of a napkin. And a few weeks later, they had sourced some funding and assembled a team of five trusted engineers to prove that the concept of handheld ultrasound systems using smart phones for control and display could work. 

It’s gratifying to look back at our many accomplishments since our humble beginnings in a small office working on an exciting project,” says Laurent Pelissier who continues to focus on ultrasound innovation as the Chief Strategy Officer at Clarius. “It’s a privilege to work with a great team of almost 150 people sharing the same vision to make ultrasound use ubiquitous.” 

10 Years of Global Growth

Now, Clarius is the only handheld ultrasound company that offers 11 specialized AI-powered wireless ultrasound scanners for human and veterinary applications. Its products are sold in 96 countries and trusted by clinicians across 64 specialties. More than 28,000 scanners have been manufactured and used for almost 7 million scanning sessions during the last ten years.
