About Esaote
The footprint of Esaote is sealed in
the history of biomedical innovation and in the relationships that have led to
change the world of diagnostics at an international level.
Since 1980, Esaote has focused its
efforts on three main areas of diagnostic imaging, so to explore all the
perspectives in a defined field of action. This has enabled us to gain
credibility in the scientific environment and conveyed results in a highly
competitive market.
Ranked among the top ten groups engaged
worldwide in the field of diagnostic imaging, today Esaote is expanding its
areas of expertise from diagnosis and prevention to treatment and follow-up,
thus strengthening its position also in the Interventional sector. As first
company to have developed innovative techniques, like dedicated MRI and fusion
imaging, today Esaote is devoted to maintain the technological lead necessary
to be competitive in an every day more challenging environment.
The idea to
build up Esaote originally came from prof. Carlo Castellano, who at the end of
1970’s promoted a new project for Ansaldo (IRI Finmeccanica Group), Genoa, in
the biomedical electronics sector, which grew into Esaote.
Esaote History
Esaote was
founded in 1982 just as a start-up.
The
experience gained within Ansaldo at the beginning of the company activity and a
very clear vision of the technological as well as socio-economical prospects
that could be opened in the field of electromedical devices inspired Esaote
engineers to immediately involve the medical scientific community so to turn
their own technological expertise into innovative diagnostic tools.
The tight
synergy coming from the continuous collaboration with clinicians, universities
and health entities allowed Esaote to grow retaining the spirit in exploring
new frontiers between science and technology.
Internationally
recognized as a company that greatly contributes in innovating diagnostic
imaging, leading to at the forefront solutions for diagnosis but also for
prevention, today Esaote is looking also at the field of therapy. A horizon
that has been opened only after establishing a solid position in the market and
through an in-depth knowledge of imaging.
