increase in prostate cancers identified with combined targeted and systematic biopsy compared to systematic biopsy alone
High-quality fusion guided procedures start in radiology, and DynaCAD offers advanced visualization tools for real-time analysis, review and reporting of multi-parametric MR studies
UroNav is designed to support you with image guidance during prostate biopsies and focal therapy procedures. It fuses diagnostic MR images of the prostate with live ultrasound images for guided procedures in real time.
Join the transformation to digital pathology
Our clinical solutions can enhance detection and improve the patient experience by reducing unnecessary biopsies and potentially reducing post-procedure complications. Digital pathology saves time and resources through streamlined collaborative features and case management tools.
“The combination of MRI and ultrasound fusion biopsy is extremely powerful. This technology is too good to ignore.”
