Rising to meet the need

Unlike other markets or fields that are subject to fluctuations in supply and demand, the healthcare industry is driven by an unwavering commitment to providing the best possible care for patients. Urologists, in particular, recognize the profound significance of this mission. From performing targeted biopsies and developing minimally invasive treatment plans, urologists devote considerable effort to delivering optimal care.

Urologists stand at the forefront of their field, continuously seeking to expand their knowledge and expertise. They stay abreast of the latest research, techniques, and tools, all in pursuit of safer, more precise, and effective patient care.

Through extensive conversations with urologists, we have worked to better understand these requirements, and through these valuable insights, we have identified the need for customizable, high-quality imaging solutions that can cater to a wide range of procedures. In light of the ever-evolving needs of the urology market, BK Medical has expanded the bkActiv’s capabilities for Urology.

This intraoperative ultrasound system offers exceptional real-time, image quality, precision, and versatility, enabling urologists to achieve remarkable results across diverse urological procedures.

We understand that accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment. Pre-operative imaging is not always accurate at the time of the procedure. Having confidence while in the OR executing and adapting the procedure plan in real-time is crucial. By facilitating intuitive operation and efficient image acquisition with real-time imaging, the bkActiv system allows for enhanced productivity in the busy operating room.

With our products we aim to contribute to reducing radiation exposure in the operating room. By utilizing high-frequency soundwaves instead of ionizing radiation, we prioritize patient and healthcare professional safety. We take pride in contributing to the reduction of radiation exposure during numerous procedures conducted in the OR.

At our core, we are driven by a commitment to improving patient care. By providing urologists with the bkActiv, we aim to contribute to their ability to deliver the highest standard of care to their patients. We are dedicated to supporting urologists' ongoing efforts to stay at the forefront of their field, and we stand ready to provide them with the tools they need to succeed. Now part of GE HealthCare, BK Medical is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what is possible by empowering surgeons to see, act, and confidently steer the course of treatment.
