That is why our AI lets every health care professional perform world class heart scans with just hours of training. Join us in bringing heart health to the whole world.
The product is tested and validated on multiple ultrasound systems and brands, and is proven to work on cart-based, compact and hand-held units. With both apps and software development kits available, customization is available to fit the needs of any partner
The patented user interface shortens exam image capture while obtaining diagnostic quality images, more cost-effectively, saving time, money and lives. Quality is automatically certified inside the product and pre-packaged for cardio interpretation anywhere
DESKi has compiled a unique database and AI library based on millions of images and has validated deep learning algorithms through clinical trials. With our proprietary software, HeartFocus, we can now demonstrate that any healthcare professional can obtain high-quality cardiac ultrasound images
More than half a billion people worldwide live with heart disease, and wait times are longer than ever*
We believe any Health Care Professional can perform a cardiac ultrasound exam
Book a demoHeartFocus is co-designed and pre-approved by leading cardiologists, HCPs and sonographers to meet their needs
Using our patented user-friendly software, HeartFocus helps any nurse, PCP, medical doctor, or sonographer perform a heart exam with clinical depth and precision
HeartFocus brings heart scans anywhere, including EMRs, rural settings, mobile units, at-home visits and retirement homes, for improved care access and comfort
HeartFocus empowers any HCP to obtain medical-grade images that will later be interpreted by specialists, saving time, money and lives, and certifying quality. The HeartFocus software uses DICOM for secure file transfers between specialists.
HeartFocus is an AI-powered heart exam software for ultrasound, and can be used with any probe or system. The product is available as an App or SDK, and appropriate for clinics, health systems and learning institutions
HeartFocus App is offered as a branded software App, with a patented experience that leads the user to obtain the ideal probe movement and diagnostic quality images
The app runs Al models to guide, detect and capture in real time the 10 ultrasound cardiac reference views. Including the parasternal long axis, parasternal short axis at aortic valve, mitral valve, and papillary muscles, apical 5-4-3-2-chamber, subcostal 4-chamber, and inferior vena cava
HeartFocus and HeartFocus Doppler SDK are also offered as branded software development toolkits (SDK) which can be built into customized partner cardio ultrasound system
The HeartFocus SDK offers guidance, detection and automatic recording similar to the HeartFocus app
The HeartFocus Doppler SDK offers live valve detection to improve and certify Doppler workflow
HeartFocus Doppler is new for 2025, with all the benefits of HeartFocus, plus new Doppler functionality
Doppler works on top of guidance, to automate Doppler acquisition by identifying in real time the cardiac valves, and provides color Doppler, and M-mode support
HeartFocus Kids is new for 2025, with all the benefits of HeartFocus, but now customized for younger patients
The App includes: The unique patented user experience from HeartFocus with all AIs - now adapted to and medically cleared for kids too
Our patented AI is built on a library of more than 1.5 million images, believed to be the largest in the industry
Superior patented ‘wow’ user experience that lets any HCP do a heart exam after only hours of training
Quantified real-time guidance happens inside the ultrasound image, to reduce mental overload, and gives real-time feedback with quality and precision indicators
HeartFocus automatically records the top quality clips of the 10 ultrasound cardiac reference views in real-time
Parasternal long axis, parasternal short axis at aortic valve, mitral valve, and papillary muscles, apical 5-4-3-2-chamber, subcostal 4-chamber, and inferior vena cava
High quality certification improves the cardiac standard and care
Validated internationally through clinical studies
HeartFocus is the brainchild of French brothers Bertrand, who holds dual doctorates in medicine and engineering, and Olivier Moal, a Berkeley and EPFL engineering alum.
In San Francisco’s winter of 2014, the brothers devised a ground-breaking imaging algorithm. This venture quickly evolved into a specialized endeavour in medical imaging, fueled by collaborations with Bordeaux’s healthcare and academic institutions.
Moved by cardiology’s pressing challenges, the Moal brothers refined their focus to democratize cardiac ultrasound expertise. Supported by an ambitious team, they developed the HeartFocus solution. This AI guidance technology, born from a blend of innovation, compassion, and international collaboration, is setting a new standard for accessible, advanced cardiac care.
"Our aim was always to revolutionize cardiac care, making it simpler and more reachable, ultimately improving peoples' lives"
Bertrand Moal, CEO & founder of DESKi.
