By allowing non-ultrasound educated healthcare workers to screen patients for blood clots (DVT) and forward the results for certified physician assessment, ThinkSono Guidance software enhances the clinical pathway.

In addition, it is thrilled to declare strategic alliances with NYU Langone Health and Temple Health, two esteemed American healthcare organizations, in order to forward its application for FDA approval of its ground-breaking products.
Working together with these prestigious institutions will hasten the regulatory approval procedure and make it easier to introduce it's ground-breaking technology into the American healthcare industry.
Pouad Al Noor, CEO and Founder of ThinkSono said, “We are thrilled to announce this significant funding milestone and the achievement of key regulatory milestones for our ThinkSono Guidance system, This funding will enable us to further advance our mission of revolutionizing medical imaging technology, while our partnerships with NYU Langone Health and Temple Health underscore our commitment to delivering innovative solutions that ultimately improve patient outcomes.”

This problem impacts settings from office practices, clinics, emergency departments, hospital floors to intensive care units and more, ThinkSono’s technology addresses this problem directly and has the potential to significantly improve patient care across Europe and beyond.”
