He shared detailed of an ongoing initiative using EDAN&#8217;s Nano Series handheld diagnostic ultrasound system to support basic prenatal care in resource-limited environments. The project focuses on equipping primary healthcare workers with tools for early screening and timely referral for at-risk pregnancies. He also noted other impactful technologies, including palm-sized fetal dopplers, EDAN&#8217;s IQ intelligent algorithm, and its smart ECG web platform \u2014 each designed to bridge infrastructure gaps and reduce reliance on scarce medical personnel.<\/p>\n<p>With a long-standing presence across both high-end and resource-limited markets,\u00a0EDAN has built a truly global footprint \u2013 from Europe to Africa. To strengthen local engagement and ensure more responsive service, it has established 22 subsidiaries worldwide. This localized support, combined with a commitment to frontline feedback, drives continuous product improvement and meaningful impact.<\/p>\n<p>EDAN is also actively involved in a range of meaningful projects across LMICs, working alongside NGOs, public health agencies, and development partners. These include maternal health and women&#8217;s care initiatives in South Africa, portable diagnostic deployments in West Africa, and ultrasound screening programs in Latin America. Each year, near<span>ly 1,000 ultras<\/span>ound devices are deployed globally through\u00a0NGO-led programs.
