Expert performance. Efficiently delivered.

Lublin, June 11, 2026 – At this year's edition of the Congress of the European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (Euroson 2026), Canon presents Aplio me X its latest ultrasound system, designed to support diagnostic confidence and efficiency through AI-assisted* workflows powered by Altivity (Canon’s AI platform).

Responding to growing clinical demands
Healthcare systems across Europe are under increasing pressure, with rising demand for diagnostic imaging examinations and ongoing workforce constraints affecting daily clinical practice. This creates a growing need for ultrasound solutions that can help support workflow consistency and the efficient use of clinical time and resources.

Aplio me X helps address these operational and staffing challenges with workflow support, portability, and energy-conscious operation, including up to four hours of battery-powered use to support flexibility across a wide range of clinical environments.

Advancing ultrasound in daily clinical practice
Aplio me X is designed to support high-end routine ultrasound, combining high-quality imaging, AI-assisted functions, and intuitive usability for daily clinical practice. Built on Canon’s latest scalable architecture, the system incorporates high-performance processing designed to support efficient use today, with the flexibility to adapt as clinical needs evolve.

“With Aplio me X, we are sharing an early view of Canon’s future direction in ultrasound technology,” says Satoshi Matsunaga, European Director, Ultrasound, Canon Medical Systems Europe. “This system reflects our ongoing focus on supporting efficient and consistent workflows that clinicians across Europe can rely on.”

With its focus on compactness, ergonomics, and energy-conscious operation, Aplio me X also reflects Canon’s commitment to supporting more sustainable healthcare in Europe.
