RIVANNA product offering
Product offeringCore offering
RIVANNA develops, manufactures, and sells AI-powered point-of-care ultrasound imaging systems that replace X-ray-based medical imaging. Its core products are the Accuro 3S handheld/cart diagnostic ultrasound system with integrated SpineNav-AI software for neuraxial anesthesia guidance, the Accuro XV cart-based volumetric ultrasound imaging system for musculoskeletal and fracture detection, and supporting consumables (Accuro 3S Needle Guide Kit, Accuro Locator Kit). The systems use a patented Dual-Array probe and SafeTrack needle tracking to automate spinal landmark detection and bone visualization.
Product overview
RIVANNA offers a unified AI imaging platform powering two purpose-built product assets for point-of-care diagnostics. The core portfolio includes the original Accuro and Accuro 3S handheld ultrasound systems for neuraxial anesthesia guidance (featuring Dual-Array probe technology, SafeTrack needle tracking, and SpineNav-AI/BoneEnhance software), and Accuro XV cart-based volumetric ultrasound for musculoskeletal/fracture imaging. Supporting consumables include the Accuro 3S Needle Guide Kit. AI capabilities include automated anatomical detection (SpineNav-AI), bone visualization (BoneEnhance), and automated fracture detection (CADe/x). All systems are FDA 510(k) cleared and validated across multiple academic medical centers.
