<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Early detection of heart disease can make a critical difference in patient outcomes, yet performing high-quality echocardiographic assessments at the point of care can be challenging, particularly for clinicians who may not perform cardiac ultrasound every day. <strong>Vscan Air SL with Caption AI</strong> is designed to help overcome these challenges by combining handheld ultrasound with AI-powered guidance, helping clinicians capture diagnostic-quality cardiac views quickly and confidently wherever care happens.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Caption AI provides real-time, step-by-step guidance during the scan, prompting users with clear instructions to help position the probe correctly and capture standard echocardiographic views. A live quality meter gives immediate feedback as image quality improves, helping users know when they are approaching diagnostic-level imaging. Once the required quality threshold is reached, AutoCapture can automatically save the clip, allowing clinicians to focus on the patient rather than the device.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The system also supports clinical assessment through automated analysis. With the AutoEF feature, Caption AI can calculate left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) once appropriate cardiac views are obtained. The system analyses images from one or more key views including parasternal long-axis (PLAX) and apical two- and four-chamber views (AP2 and AP4) with accuracy improving as additional views are captured. This provides clinicians with rapid insights that can help inform patient evaluation and support timely clinical decisions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Vscan Air SL with Caption AI supports a wide range of standard echocardiographic views, including parasternal long-axis and short-axis views, apical two-, three-, four-, and five-chamber views, and subcostal cardiac and inferior vena cava views. Protocols can also be customised, allowing healthcare teams to tailor workflows to specific clinical indications or practice environments. By bringing together handheld ultrasound and AI-driven guidance, Caption AI helps extend the knowledge and experience of sonographers and echocardiographers to more clinicians at the point of care. The result is a powerful, easy-to-use tool that helps make focused cardiac ultrasound more accessible, enabling faster assessments, greater confidence during exams, and more efficient patient pathways.</p>
