EchoNous and 19Labs Revolutionize Telemedicine with Integration of Point-of-Care-Ultrasound (POCUS) Integration

EchoNous and 19Labs are proud to announce a groundbreaking partnership that aims to transform telehealth capabilities for rural communities and medical educators. By combining EchoNous’ advanced Kosmos ultrasound system with 19Labs’ GALE eClinics platform, we have created an affordable and user-friendly diagnostic telehealth solution. This comprehensive platform incorporates high-performance point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), Zoom-Based Telemedicine, and over thirty additional diagnostic devices, providing clinicians with the same tools used in hospitals.

The collaboration between EchoNous and 19Labs brings together two industry leaders who are dedicated to pushing boundaries and redefining their respective categories. EchoNous’ Kosmos platform is a handheld ultrasound device that integrates high-end performance and educational AI guidance, while 19Labs’ GALE eClinics platform enables remote diagnosis using a wide range of diagnostic devices. This partnership revolutionizes telemedicine by delivering a comprehensive diagnostic platform that is portable, easy to use, and affordable.

The enhanced GALE eClinics platform, powered by Kosmos tele-ultrasound, has already made a significant impact on rural and underserved communities. By combining multiple diagnostic tools into one device, this platform enables local providers to communicate in real time with remote specialists for guidance and remote diagnosis. The solution has been successfully deployed in rural areas of Guyana and Mexico, saving multiple lives and improving access to healthcare.

Furthermore, this tele-ultrasound solution has the potential to revolutionize ultrasound education. With its real-time ultrasound, voice, and video sharing capabilities, along with AI educational guidance, learners receive contextual instruction for transducer placement, anatomy identification, image grading, and auto-image capture. This innovation facilitates remote ultrasound education and offers an effective alternative to costly and time-consuming in-person training. The ACP has recently launched its Point-of-Care Ultrasound Mentorship Program, which utilizes Kosmos’ live tele-ultrasound sessions to teach ultrasound trainees remotely. This innovative education program reflects a growing trend in the medical community. Tele-ultrasound not only holds great potential for enhancing retention rates, but it also offers the added advantage of reducing or even eliminating the need for costly and time-consuming in-person training.
