MSK Go — anatomy-aware AI for musculoskeletal ultrasound

MSK Go assists healthcare professionals during musculoskeletal ultrasound by automatically highlighting key anatomical structures in real time — an assistive visualization layer built directly into compatible ultrasound systems.

Real-time anatomical interpretation

As you scan, MSK Go automatically highlights clinically relevant musculoskeletal structures in real time using AI-based image segmentation — on both live and prerecorded images.

Color overlays & name labels

Detected structures are marked with semi-transparent color overlays and concise name labels, supporting intuitive interpretation during the exam. Overlay intensity and labels are adjustable.

Detection Indicator

An at-a-glance indicator shows whether none, some, or all supported structures are currently detected in the view. It reflects what the software detects — not a clinical assessment.

Broad coverage of MSK anatomy

MSK Go is not limited to a single structure or view — it supports your full exam scope, covering the anatomy you actually assess across the musculoskeletal worksheet.
