Overview

Ultrasound simulation for medical education — built for real-world readiness.

Running an ultrasound training programme means balancing clinical realism with curriculum flexibility — and doing it at scale. Vimedix is a simulation platform that lets you do both. It covers cardiac, abdominal, OB-GYN, breast, pulmonary and point-of-care ultrasound from a single system, with over 200 pathology cases your learners can scan, assess and learn from across all modules before they ever reach a patient.

Faculty can build custom scanning exercises, assign specific pathologies, and monitor how each learner progresses through integrated performance metrics. For programmes that need to blend in-person and remote delivery, Vimedix connects to video-conferencing platforms and offers web-based workshops where students practise probe technique with a mouse — bridging the gap between theory and hands-on time.

Features

Why educators choose Vimedix.

01
3D/4D Scanning

Explore anatomy from every plane in real time.

Vimedix is the only ultrasound simulator that gives learners access to volumetric imaging in real time. Multiplanar reconstruction lets them explore cardiac anatomy and pathology from multiple planes simultaneously.

  • 3D/4D scans with multiplanar reconstruction (MPR)
  • Detailed views of normal and advanced pathologies
  • Real-time volumetric imaging across cardiac and OB-GYN modules

02
One-Platform Training

Toggle between specialities without switching systems.

Your learners can seamlessly move between cardiac, pulmonary, abdominal and OB-GYN modalities without leaving the system. One platform means fewer hardware decisions, a simpler setup for technicians, and a pathology library that grows with your programme.

  • Cardiac, pulmonary, abdominal and OB-GYN on one platform
  • No need for separate simulators per speciality
  • Expand pathology libraries as your programme grows

03
Self-Directed Learning

Learners tailor their own experience for optimal progress.

Instructional content such as ICCU lectures, web-based workshops and target cut planes, allows students to tailor their usage to suit their individual learning styles.

  • ICCU lectures and target cut plane exercises
  • Web-based workshops using a computer mouse for remote practice
  • Recorded sessions for review and self-assessment

Performance Metrics

Track progress. Evidence outcomes. Identify gaps.

Faculty can set scanning exercises, review how individual learners perform across sessions, and pull the data they need for programme reporting. Progress is documented, gaps are visible, and competency tracking is built into the workflow rather than bolted on afterwards.

  • Create custom scanning exercises
  • Monitor individual learner progress over time
  • Exportable data for programme reporting

05
In-Person & Remote

Reach your learners wherever they are.

Not every session can be lab-based, and nor do they have to be. Vimedix connects to video-conferencing platforms for live remote sessions and offers browser-based workshops where students practise probe technique with a mouse — giving them structured exposure before they pick up a real transducer.

  • Video conferencing integration for remote learning
  • Web-based workshops with mouse-driven scanning practice
  • Live learning, recorded sessions and self-directed activities
