Sensora™: AI-Powered Heart Health Detection
Revolutionizing cardiac care through intelligent heart monitoring technology that brings the precision of specialized cardiology tools to your primary care visit.
What is Sensora™?
- Sensora™ is an FDA-cleared AI platform that integrates with advanced digital stethoscopes to help detect early signs of cardiac disease that might otherwise go unnoticed during routine examinations.
- This breakthrough technology combines the traditional art of listening to your heart with cutting-edge artificial intelligence analysis.
How it Works
- During your examination, your provider uses a specialized digital stethoscope to capture your heart sounds and electrical activity
- With just a 15-second recording, Sensora™'s AI algorithm analyzes both heart sounds and ECG patterns simultaneously
- The technology provides immediate insights about potential cardiac conditions
- Results help guide decisions about whether further cardiac evaluation is needed
What can Sensora™ Detect?
- Structural heart murmurs (heart valve problems)
- Ejection fraction (reduced heart pumping ability)
- Atrial fibrillation (irregular heart rhythm)
- Other subtle cardiac abnormalities that traditional exams might miss
The Benefits for You
- Clinical studies show Sensora™ more than doubles the detection of valvular heart disease compared to traditional methods
- Earlier identification of heart conditions before symptoms develop
- Enhanced accuracy in distinguishing between normal and concerning heart findings
- Better informed decisions about cardiac specialist referrals when needed
- Peace of mind knowing your heart health is being monitored with the latest technology
DermaSensor: Revolutionary Skin Cancer Detection
We're excited to offer cutting-edge technology that brings enhanced precision to skin cancer screening right to your examination room.
What is DermaSensor?
- DermaSensor is the first FDA-cleared AI-powered device designed specifically for primary care physicians to detect melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma.
- This wireless, handheld device uses artificial intelligence and light spectroscopy to examine suspicious skin lesions at the cellular level—providing results in just seconds.
How it Works
- Your provider positions the device against any skin lesion of concern
- The device fires off a pulse of light and analyzes the spectral information of the backscattered light using an AI-powered algorithm
- Results appear instantly, helping guide decisions about monitoring or further evaluation
- The entire process takes less than 30 seconds and is completely painless
The Benefits for You
- Studies show DermaSensor has a 96% sensitivity for detecting all three common skin cancers
- Early detection when it matters most
- Peace of mind with objective, scientific assessment
- Reduced need for unnecessary procedures when lesions are benign
