Advancing Point-of-Care Liver Assessment
The award recognizes the progress Sonic Incytes has made in liver disease assessment with Velacur ONE™. Designed for point-of-care use, Velacur ONE combines AI-guided ultrasound with quantitative liver measurements. The system provides clinicians with fast, accessible information that can help support patient care decisions.
The growing burden of MASLD is increasing the need for efficient liver assessment tools. As a result, healthcare providers need better ways to assess and monitor liver disease.
Sonic Incytes remains focused on helping clinicians identify, monitor, and manage liver disease across a range of care settings.
Why This Recognition Matters
Liver disease affects millions of people around the world. As awareness grows, healthcare providers are looking for practical tools that can support earlier detection and ongoing disease management.
