VINNO Showcases URM Microvascular Imaging at International CEUS Course 2025

From Oct 19-22, VINNO was honored to participate in the International Course in Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound — Hepatic and Extrahepatic Indications, held in Munich, Germany. This specialist program brought together leading CEUS clinicians, researchers, and educators from across Europe and North America to explore emerging developments in hepatic and abdominal CEUS applications.

During the event, VINNO presented its Ultra-Resolution Microscopy (URM) technology — an advanced imaging approach that visualizes microvascular structures at near-histological detail. When paired with contrast-enhanced ultrasound, URM enables unprecedented clarity of microcirculatory patterns, supporting earlier and more accurate lesion assessment.

URM: Progress, Validation, and Growing Clinical Impact

In recent years, VINNO has made significant progress in the development and validation of URM:

• 12 global clinical centers have joined VINNO’s URM multi-center program, advancing research across hepatic, renal, and inflammatory microvascular applications.

• A landmark study led by the PLA General Hospital demonstrated the potential of URM for super-resolution imaging of renal microcirculation — published in Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology.

• Multiple institutions have begun URM pilot projects focusing on liver lesion characterization, perfusion evaluation, and early-stage disease detection.

• The ULTIMUS 9E has been adopted as the primary URM research platform, supporting both high-frame-rate acquisition and advanced microbubble tracking.

URM’s ability to detect microvascular alterations beyond the limits of conventional ultrasound drew strong interest from CEUS experts participating in the course. Discussions highlighted the growing potential of URM as a complementary tool for CEUS-based diagnostic workflows.

As CEUS continues to expand its global clinical relevance, VINNO remains committed to innovation, collaboration, and scientific exchange. We look forward to working closely with CEUS leaders to shape the future of microvascular ultrasound imaging.
