(MED) Deep Breeze: Groundbreaking New Lung Imaging System

The FDA recently approved a groundbreaking new non-invasive, radiation-free lung imaging system created by Deep Breeze, Ltd, an Israeli company in Or Akiva. It is viewed by some as the most important medical imaging technology since ultrasound. It is being marketed by GE Healthcare in partnership with Deep Breeze.

The VRI™ technology is based on Vibration Response generated by the air passing through the lungs. The system records these vibrations and then uses an algorithm to convert the data into images. Changes in tissue composition or alteration in airflow impact how sounds within the lungs vibrate, and subsequently how the images by the VRI™ system appear on the system’s computer screen. The result offers physicians a dynamic functional lung image together with quantitative data, obtained passively at the bedside & without radiation. Thousands of patients have been recorded by the VRI™ system worldwide during clinical investigations without any single adverse
event.
