Koning Health, a pioneer in advanced breast imaging technology, has expanded its footprint to Jamaica, underscoring its exponential growth marked by significant installations of its Koning Vera device. 

This wave of expansion of the American-based company’s technology is a testament to its commitment to enhancing breast cancer detection and patient care globally, as well as the growing support and belief in the benefits of breast CT as an alternative modality for breast imaging.

The installation of the Koning Vera at Radiology West in Montego Bay, Jamaica, marks a significant milestone as the first of its kind in the Caribbean. This installation will provide state-of-the-art breast imaging to a region where access to advanced diagnostic tools has been limited, reinforcing Koning’s dedication to global health equity.

Upcoming installations demonstrate technology’s growing impact

Koning Health has also announced installations of its advanced breast imaging technology in California and Texas, with the Norcross, Georgia-headquartered firm seeing widespread adoption of its technology, with notable recent and upcoming installations demonstrating its growing impact. 

In an effort to bring cutting-edge breast imaging to more women, Koning has introduced a mobile unit in California equipped with the Vera Scan through Gnosis for Her. This mobile trailer ensures that barriers like income, time, and location don’t prevent women from getting access to high-quality diagnostic care.

Expanding its footprint in the United States, Koning is installing a Vera Scan system in Dallas, Texas, at a clinic operated by imaging expert Dr. Richard Reaven, as part of a team with his brothers (Dr. Daniel Reaven, Dr. Andrew Reaven, and Dr. Matthew Reaven) as well as plastic surgeon Dr. Robert Paresi.

As the first installation of its kind in Texas, Dr. Richard Reaven is looking forward to providing alternative breast imaging to women of the state. According to him, “Our goal is to deliver a pain-free breast imaging experience with the Koning Vera. Women have been searching for an alternative to the discomfort associated with traditional mammography for decades. With this innovative technology, we are able to produce high-quality images without compression in just 7 seconds per breast.”

Installations are also coming to Chicago, IL, Sarasota, FL, and Cincinnati, OH, within the coming months.

Strategic Vision for the Future

Koning’s recent growth and upcoming installations are a testament to its innovative technology and strategic vision. By expanding its reach, Koning continues to lead the way in transforming breast cancer imaging and diagnosis.

CEO of Koning Health, Lutao Ning, commented, “We are thrilled to see our technology being embraced by healthcare providers globally. Our recent and upcoming installations are a clear indication of the impact the Koning Vera is making in the fight against breast cancer. We remain dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in breast imaging and ensuring that more women have access to the life-saving diagnostics they deserve.”
