The tool can identify fetal structures directly from the ultrasound system and automatically perform measurements and label images.
Its SonoBiometry tool reduces keystrokes by automatically suggesting caliper placement and its SonoCNS tool automates the process of measuring the fetal brain.

“There’s this desire to have some independence over your own personal health, so I do think there'll be a willingness [to adopt this technology],” said Furman. “But just as it was slow to adopt all the telehealth technologies before COVID fire started it — I think this will be something similar. Everyone needs to come together and be willing and open to trying something new.”
