A Message to our Valued Customers
As we begin a new season, I want to start by thanking you, our customers. Your work continuously inspires our team to find new and innovative ways to support your success. As a result, technology is evolving quickly here at VisualSonics.
We have made significant R&D investments in Artificial Intelligence through our parent company Fujifilm SonoSite to ensure we are leveraging that capability to help you solve problems more effectively. A great example of our eagerness to adopt AI, is our own Auto LV Analysis tool that allows for functional analysis of the left ventricle in small laboratory animals with a “one-click” solution - now in B-Mode and M-Mode! Read our recent Featured Publication to find out how this tool is impacting the research community.
Around the globe, we are increasing the number of workshops we host in order to bring together our research community to learn, share best practices, and build relationships with the focus on ultra high frequency ultrasound and photoacoustics. Visit our website for upcoming workshops and events information. If you would like to host a workshop, please contact us. Thanks to your support, we are celebrating 20 years of innovation in scientific research. The potential to impact human health has never been greater. We look forward to playing a role in supporting your success for the next 20 years!
