EndoSound Vision System®
The Next Era of EUS
The EndoSound Vision System® (EVS) provides access to advanced endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) technology at a fraction of the cost of conventional ultrasound endoscopes.
EVS product details
EUS is the most accurate tool for the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders of the digestive tract. Cost of the system and access have been challenges for providers to overcome. The adaptive design of the EndoSound Vision System allows providers to easily convert existing flexible video gastroscopes from the major endoscope manufacturers into ultrasound endoscopes, delivering new accessibility to EUS at a fraction of the cost of conventional platforms.
EXPANDING EUS SITES OF SERVICE
By reducing the cost of the system, the EVS removes the primary barriers to integrating EUS for ambulatory surgical centers and hospitals of any size or location, empowering providers with the flexibility to perform EUS procedures when and where they want.
MAKING EUS MORE AFFORDABLE
The adaptive design of the EVS enables healthcare facilities to implement EUS programs at a fraction of the price of traditional systems by modifying existing equipment instead of investing in additional endoscopes.
ACHIEVING EXCELLENT EUS IMAGING
The EVS attaches to your current video gastroscope to provide excellent image quality and therapeutic capabilities consistent with today’s leading ultrasound platforms.

What experts are saying
Because of its price and efficacy, I believe that the EndoSound EVS can shift EUS procedures from the hospital to the ambulatory surgical center. As an interventional endoscopist, I know this will also improve patient satisfaction.
Isaac Raijman, MD, Gastroenterologist & Therapeutic Endoscopist
The most striking aspect of EndoSound was its image quality and the ease with which a fine needle biopsy was achieved. The EndoSound technology is revolutionary and resourceful.
Marco A. Paez, MD, Gastroenterologist & Therapeutic Endoscopist
I’ve used the EVS and I find the imaging comparable to existing EUS. Access to EUS in Latin America has been a challenge, and that is mostly due to the cost of conventional systems. Since the EVS is a less expensive system, I believe it is the next era of EUS in Latin America.

EVS components
ULTRASOUND DISPOSABLE KIT (UDK-T); DIAGNOSTIC/THERAPEUTIC
UDK-T brake Enables the endoscopist to hold the position of the transducer and needle
UDK-T control knob Allows the endoscopist to position the transducer and articulate the biopsy needle accurately
Endoscope latch Secures the UDK-T and Ultrasound Transducer Module to the video endoscope
Endoscope sleeve Flexible silicon sleeve fastens the UDK-T to various diameter endoscopes
ULTRASOUND TRANSDUCER MODULE (UTM)
UTM connector Connects the EVS to the Transducer Extension Cable
Transducer The single-crystal transducer produces an excellent ultrasound image
Aperture Enables the endoscopist to pass devices, such as an FNB needle, through the UDK-T and UTM
TRANSDUCER EXTENSION CABLE (TEC)
Transducer Extension Cable (TEC) Enables the EVS Scanner to interface with the UTM to produce the ultrasound image
EVS SCANNER
EVS Scanner The imaging power of a conventional ultrasound processor delivered through a scanner the size of a portable disc drive
