Helping cardiologists measure, interpret and report heart ultrasound studies
Heart ultrasound assessment requires clinicians to interpret measurements against complex clinical guidelines. Producing a report can take a specialist twenty or thirty minutes per patient, while cardiologists face pressure to see more patients in less time.
MediRapp develops EchoRapp to help cardiologists measure heart ultrasound studies, interpret findings against guidelines and generate reports. It connects to imaging and patient-record systems, with clinicians retaining responsibility for final decisions.
