Verasonics is revolutionizing ultrasound with the development of leading-edge ultrasound research technologies. Our real-time, software-based, programmable ultrasound systems accelerate research by providing unsurpassed speed and control to simplify the data collection and analysis process. Verasonics has established a new paradigm in ultrasound system architecture by providing extreme flexibility to expedite development of new techniques and products. Our focus is to provide researchers and developers with the most advanced and flexible tools that enable them to develop new algorithms and products used in diagnostic, interventional and therapeutic medical ultrasound. Our systems are also used in non-medical applications such as biometrics, non-destructive testing and earth sciences. This architecture also enables straightforward implementation of newly developed imaging approaches which cannot be achieved on contemporary commercial systems. Verasonics has developed and continues to enhance a unique ultrasound system architecture that facilitates creation and testing of new modes and applications.
