EchoNous is highlighting the results of a study suggesting the company's Kosmos ultrasound system improves cardiac evaluations in chemotherapy patients.

The study, published in the European Heart Journal, found that the ultrasound system allowed ultrasound practitioners of all experience levels to accurately and quickly assess left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), an indicator of heart health and a measure to monitor in patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment. The study involved 115 patients and had oncology staff perform heart scans using the Kosmos system. The findings showed that the nonultrasound experts achieved diagnostic accuracies between 89% to 94%.

Kosmos is equipped with AI algorithms Trio and Kosmos Auto EF and guides users through the scanning process. The system also produces echocardiographic images at the point of care.

EchoNous will showcase the Kosmos system at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) annual meeting from May 31 to June 4.

An intradecidual sign depicts transvaginal sagittal grayscale ultrasound imaging in a 34-year-old pregnant patient, which shows a 4-mm empty gestational sac (solid arrow) in the anterior endometrium. The location of the sac to one side of the central hyperechoic line (dotted arrows) representing the opposed innermost layers of decidualized endometrium confirms it is within the endometrium and not the endometrial cavity, hence the name intradecidual sign. This sign is helpful when seen to diagnose a probable intrauterine pregnancy before visualization of the yolk sac. Three days later, the yolk sac was visualized (not shown), allowing for the diagnosis of a definite intrauterine pregnancy.

Sample images show cancer detection at supplemental ultrasound screening after screening mammography with a negative result. (A) Craniocaudal right breast screening mammography shows negative findings in a 54-year-old female patient with extremely dense breast tissue. (B) Coronal view from supplemental screening with automated whole-breast ultrasound image in the same patient four months later shows an irregular hypoechoic mass (dashed yellow circle) in the right breast, diagnosed as invasive ductal carcinoma. (C) Craniocaudal screening right breast mammography shows negative findings in a 74-year-old patient with heterogeneously dense breast tissue. (D) Antiradial gray-scale image in the right breast from supplemental handheld screening ultrasound in the same 74-year-old patient 7 months later demonstrates an irregular hypoechoic mass in the right breast (yellow outline), which yielded a diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma.
