The Cardiac Imaging Bottleneck

A $22 billion market built around a machine most patients can't get to.

Cardiac MRI is the clinical reference standard for measuring heart function. It is also expensive, slow, and operationally hostile to high-volume cardiology programs. Ventripoint's VMS+™ targets the gap between what doctors need and what their patients can actually access.

Today's Standard

Cardiac MRI

  • ×4–5 day average wait for a scan slot at most North American tertiary centres.
  • ×Capital cost above $1M per machine — most community hospitals don't have one.
  • ×Cardiologists send patients out of network or accept a less precise assessment.
  • ×Contraindications exclude many patients — pacemakers, implants, claustrophobia, paediatric sedation.
  • ×Bed days add up while a hospitalised patient waits for a scan that delays discharge.

VMS+™ 4.0

AI-Enhanced Echocardiography

  • Point-of-care reconstruction on the ultrasound machine already in the cath lab.
  • Vendor-agnostic. Works with any commercially available 2D echo or MRI image set.
  • Accuracy comparable to MRI on volumetric measurement and ejection fraction — across ~60 peer-reviewed publications.
  • Does not require "perfect images." KBR fills the geometry gaps that defeat traditional 3D echo.
  • Sub-minute reconstruction. The decision-making delay disappears.

How VMS+™ 4.0 Works

Click through the pipeline — 2D echo to 3D MRI-grade output.

VMS+ doesn't compete with MRI by adding hardware. It leverages a proprietary cardiac geometry database — built over more than a decade of clinical research — to reconstruct what a perfect 3D scan would have shown.

Market & Clinical Data

A structural shift in cardiac care — and the infrastructure to ride it.

The U.S. cardiovascular devices market is projected to nearly double by 2032, and 75% of U.S. health systems are now rolling out AI-powered clinical tools. Ventripoint sits at the convergence.

The Investment Case

Three reasons the market is starting to pay attention to VPT.

01

Hospitals are buying AI that pays for itself

Healthcare AI is moving out of the pilot phase. Nearly 40% of U.S. hospitals are operating at negative margins, and CFOs are rejecting clinical moonshots in favour of tools with clear ROI. VMS+ pitches as a "bolt-on" — no new capital equipment, no workflow rebuild, immediate impact on bed-day economics.

02

Validated by peer review — and now by award

VMS+ has been cited in approximately 60 peer-reviewed publications and is referenced in clinical research at Guy's and St Thomas' (London), DHZC Berlin, and other major centres. In April 2026, VMS+ 4.0 won a Gold Edison Award — joining peers like Abbott, Medtronic, Heartflow, Viz.ai, and Boston Scientific.

03

Shift to Device-as-a-Service revenue

In late 2025 Ventripoint announced a strategic pivot to a Device-as-a-Service subscription model — designed to shorten enterprise sales cycles, build recurring revenue, and lower the upfront barrier for hospitals. New CFO David Swetlow was appointed in December 2025 to execute the refreshed commercial strategy.

Where VMS+ Is Already Used

From congenital to cardio-oncology — one platform, many clinical questions.

Congenital Heart Disease

The clinical area Ventripoint was founded on. Strong validation for right ventricle measurement in paediatric and adult CHD patients.

Heart Failure

Precise volumetric measurement and ejection fraction tracking for heart failure patients managed across long therapeutic timelines.

Post-Surgical Recovery

Functional cardiac assessment for patients recovering from cardiac surgery — without the operational friction of repeated MRI scheduling.

Cardio-Oncology

Monitoring chemotherapy-related cardiac complications in cancer patients — a fast-growing indication as oncology survival rates extend.

Pulmonary Hypertension

Right ventricular function is critical for pulmonary hypertension management — VMS+ delivers the measurement the difficult chamber requires.

Valve Dysfunction

Volumetric and functional assessment for patients with valvular heart disease — supporting surgical planning and long-term monitoring.

What Clinicians Are Saying

The practitioners who use it every day.

"

VMS+ not only gives us a very precise spatial view of complex congenital malformations at any time, but it also provides us with important data on the function of the heart muscle. This allows us to plan therapy even more precisely, check it at any time and adjust it if necessary.

Prof. Felix Berger
Director — Clinic for Congenital Heart Disease, DHZC Berlin
"

We want to introduce Ventripoint to all our hospital partners, to make it a standard of care.

Beth Rumack
COO — Ollie Hinkle Heart Foundation
"

Having had experience with the older Ventripoint system, the new VMS+ system with its increased functionality is a great addition to our echo lab.

Dr. Saleha Kabir
Lead Physiologist — Paediatrics & Advanced Echocardiography

Our aim is that by working together, we can ultimately provide reliable and effective tools for clinicians on a global scale.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from investors and clinical evaluators.

What exactly does VMS+™ do that a standard echocardiogram doesn't?+
A standard 2D echocardiogram gives a clinician slices of the heart that they then have to interpret to estimate function. VMS+ applies Knowledge-Based Reconstruction (KBR) — a proprietary AI model trained on more than a decade of cardiac geometry data — to those slices and produces a full 3D volumetric model of all four chambers, plus the ejection fraction for each. The accuracy of those measurements has been shown to be comparable to a cardiac MRI across approximately 60 peer-reviewed publications.
Why does this matter financially for a hospital?+
Cardiac MRI is a bottleneck. A typical wait at a North American tertiary centre is four to five days. For an inpatient stuck in a hospital bed waiting on a scan, those days translate into bed-day cost — Ventripoint's analysis suggests savings of up to $40,000 per scan in avoided bed-day cost when VMS+ replaces or accelerates the cardiac MRI workflow. With nearly 40% of U.S. hospitals operating at negative margins, that's the kind of math hospital CFOs respond to.
What's the Device-as-a-Service model and why is it material?+
In late 2025, Ventripoint announced a shift toward a subscription-based deployment model rather than a one-time capital purchase. For hospitals, that lowers the upfront cost and budget-approval friction. For Ventripoint, it converts a long enterprise sales cycle into recurring revenue — which is generally valued at a higher multiple by public-market investors.
How is VMS+ regulated and where is it cleared for use?+
VMS+ has regulatory market approvals across the United States, the European Union, Canada, and the United Kingdom. The system is vendor-agnostic — it works with all major ultrasound systems supported by those regulatory approvals.
What is the Gold Edison Award and why is it relevant?+
The Edison Awards are an established global recognition for innovation, judged by a peer panel of executives, clinicians, engineers, and technology leaders. Gold awards are reserved for innovations demonstrating technical excellence and real-world impact potential. VMS+ 4.0 won Gold in the Precision Health Technologies category at the 2026 Edison Awards, joining peers like Abbott, Medtronic, Heartflow, Viz.ai, and Boston Scientific.
Who are the relevant comparable companies?+
Public-market peers in the AI-enhanced cardiac and ultrasound imaging space include Butterfly Network (NYSE: BFLY), iRhythm Technologies (NASDAQ: IRTC), and large-cap medtech players like GE HealthCare (NASDAQ: GEHC), Medtronic (NYSE: MDT), and Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG).
What's the addressable market?+
The U.S. cardiovascular devices market is projected to nearly double — from $22.08 billion in 2025 to $41.29 billion by 2032. The broader healthcare AI market is projected to expand from $17.2 billion in 2025 to $77.2 billion by 2035.
What about cash and burn?+
Ventripoint is a small-cap medtech still in commercial scale-up. Like all early-stage public companies, it's important to review the latest financial filings on SEDAR+ before making any investment decision. Management has been explicit that timely execution of the commercial plan is dependent on securing growth capital — and European distributor AngioPro recommitted with additional capital in late 2025.
