Hospital AI platform Clarius Intelligence

medicalfor maternitymedical imaging

Overview
Clarius Intelligence is an AI ecosystem integrated into Clarius wireless ultrasound scanners to simplify scanning, enhance image quality, and speed clinical decision-making. It provides real-time, anatomy-specific overlays, automated measurements, and hands-free workflow tools to help clinicians and learners obtain optimized imaging and rapid anatomical identification.

Key capabilities

• Real-time anatomical guidance via T-Mode™ dynamic overlays to highlight and label key structures during live scanning.
• AI-powered overlays, labels, and measurements across multiple clinical applications (MSK, urology, obstetrics, prostate, vascular, cardiac, and more).
• Automated image optimization and workflow features (Auto Preset™ AI, Auto Gain) to select imaging presets and adjust brightness without manual parameter changes.
• Hands-free operation support through voice controls to minimize manual adjustments and keep operators focused on patient care.
• Automated clinical measurements including bladder volume, prostate volume, fetal biometry (BPD, HC, AC, FL, CRL), tendon measurements, and real-time heart rate from imaging (Auto Heart Rate).

T-Mode™: rapid anatomical identification (examples of supported anatomy)

• MSK: knee, shoulder, abdominal wall (supports visualization of tendons and musculoskeletal anatomy).
• Primary Care / Acute Care: heart, head and neck, abdominal wall, knee, shoulder (guides commonly assessed anatomy across everyday ultrasound applications).
• Aesthetics / Plastic Surgery: facial anatomy (lips, temple, cheek), gluteal region for BBL, breast, abdominal wall (layered anatomy to support procedures and education).

AI Modes and Clinical Applications

• MSK AI — automatically overlays, labels, and measures tendons in real time to support musculoskeletal assessments.
• Median Nerve AI — detects and measures the median nerve to assist with carpal tunnel evaluation.
• Bladder AI — automatically measures bladder volume to assess urinary retention.
• Prostate AI — measures prostate volume for transrectal (TRUS) and transabdominal (TAUS) exams.
• OB AI — automatically labels and measures BPD, HC, AC, FL, CRL and estimates gestational age during obstetric exams.
• Auto Heart Rate — provides real-time heart rate measurement directly from imaging without ECG or spectral modes.
• Vessel Depth AI — displays depth of the shallowest Doppler flow signal in real time to assist vascular access and procedures.

Workflow and image quality features

• Auto Preset™ AI selects appropriate imaging presets based on anatomy being examined to accelerate exams (e.g., FAST exams).
• Auto Gain continuously analyzes each frame to optimize image brightness automatically.
• Voice Controls allow hands-free operation of the scanner to streamline workflow and prioritize patient safety and comfort.

Validation and clinical use

• FDA-cleared for clinical use (feature-specific clearance noted for T-Mode™ on referenced materials).
• Supported by peer-reviewed studies and real-world clinical use, designed to integrate with clinician workflows.

Intended benefits

• Faster learning for trainees through clear, real-time visual overlays.
• Improved clinician confidence and measurement consistency by highlighting anatomy and automating routine measurements.
• Reduced need for manual image adjustments and faster transition from scan to decision.
