Our Mission:
Today, as many as 25 million medical professionals globally do not have access
to medical imaging, which is proven to improve patient care and reduce
healthcare costs. As pioneers in miniaturizing ultrasound, we’re on a mission
to make medical imaging accessible everywhere by delivering high-performance,
affordable and easy-to-use solutions with the power of artificial intelligence.
We’re miniaturizing high quality point-of-care ultrasound to offer a safe and
cost-effective option for clinicians in every specialty.
2. History:
Clarius Mobile Health was founded by experienced innovators who have played an instrumental role in the ultrasound industry during the last 20 years. Our developers were the brains behind the first PC-based platform for ultrasound research. They also introduced the first touch screen ultrasound system with a simplified user interface.
“We had three clear goals when we set out to develop Clarius: to deliver an ultra-portable system for medical professionals that does not compromise on image quality; to remove the cords that get in the way, and to make sure the Clarius App offers the flexibility to work reliably with both iOS and Android smart devices,” said Clarius CEO, Laurent Pelissier.
