GE HealthCare (GEHC) has launched Invenia ABUS Premium, an advanced 3D ultrasound system featuring AI-driven technology for breast cancer screening. The system is specifically designed for patients with dense breasts, where approximately 71% of cancers occur and traditional mammograms may miss one-third of cases.

The new system includes Verisound AI and AI Assistant, offering up to 40% faster scanning speeds and improved image quality. Key features include Scan Quality Assessment, Auto Nipple Detection, and a novel Reverse Curve transducer for enhanced patient comfort. The system's AI tools assist in detecting and characterizing breast lesions, potentially reducing unnecessary biopsies.

According to studies, 40% of women globally and 70% of Asian women have dense breast tissue, making them 4-6 times more likely to receive a breast cancer diagnosis. The system will launch in key markets throughout 2025 and has received FDA Premarket Approval.

GE HealthCare (GEHC) has announced a significant collaboration with NVIDIA at GTC 2025 to develop autonomous X-ray and ultrasound solutions. The partnership aims to address healthcare challenges including staff shortages and increasing diagnostic demands, with 4.2 billion medical imaging examinations performed annually worldwide.
