- In March 2025, Boston Scientific Corporation announced the launch of its iCross Coronary Imaging Catheter in the U.S., aimed at enhancing the deliverability of its iLab Ultrasound Imaging System, a leading intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) technology. By enabling physicians to obtain clearer, more precise images of the heart and coronary arteries, this product introduction is expected to strengthen the company’s position in the vascular imaging market and support the growing demand for advanced intravascular diagnostic tools
- In October 2023, Abbott launched its advanced vascular imaging platform powered by Ultreon 1.0 Software in India. This platform integrates optical coherence tomography (OCT) with artificial intelligence (AI) to offer physicians a detailed and automated assessment of coronary artery blockages. By enabling real-time differentiation of plaque types, assessing calcium severity, and assisting in accurate stent placement, the technology is expected to enhance procedural precision and clinical outcomes. This launch positions Abbott to capitalize on the increasing demand for AI-driven imaging solutions in the vascular imaging market, particularly in the rapidly expanding Indian healthcare sector
- In November 2023, BD launched the SiteRite 9, an advanced ultrasound system engineered to enhance precision in placing vascular access devices. With improved imaging capabilities and user-friendly features, the system aims to reduce complications and improve first-attempt success rates, particularly in complex vascular access cases. This development is expected to strengthen BD’s presence in the vascular imaging market by addressing critical clinical needs and supporting efficiency in hospital and outpatient settings
- In August 2023, GE Healthcare unveiled the Vscan Air SL, a wireless, handheld ultrasound device designed for quick and accurate assessments in vascular and cardiac care. The device combines high-quality imaging with mobility, enabling clinicians to make faster decisions at the point of care. By improving workflow efficiency and supporting early diagnosis in both emergency and routine settings, the Vscan Air SL is positioned to drive adoption of compact imaging tools globally and contribute to the growing demand for portable vascular imaging solutions
- In February 2023, FUJIFILM India expanded its healthcare imaging portfolio at the 75th National Conference of the Indian Radiological and Imaging Association (IRIA), unveiling several advanced diagnostic solutions. The launch included the Arietta 850 DeepInsight and Arietta 650 DeepInsight ultrasound systems, the APERTO Lucent MRI machine, and the Non-DICOM printer APEOS. The company also introduced “FUJIFILM Connect,” a mobile application designed to streamline service and support. These additions underscore FUJIFILM’s commitment to strengthening its presence in the Indian vascular imaging market by offering cutting-edge, user-centric technologies tailored to local healthcare needs
