EchoNous unveils Torso NXT, the next evolution of the Kosmos ultrasound platform

Top-tier image quality and AI clinicians trust, in a probe designed for POCUS users by POCUS users

REDMOND, Wash., Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- EchoNous today introduced Torso NXT, the next generation of its flagship Torso probe for the Kosmos ultrasound platform. Designed to address the evolving demands of modern clinical imaging, Torso NXT is the first of many planned product introductions expanding the capabilities of Kosmos. The device delivers category-leading image quality, usability, and field serviceability breakthroughs alongside enhanced processing power and speed that lays a foundation for new AI applications. Combined, these advances represent the new standard for portable ultrasound.

Uncompromised Clinical Capabilities 

Torso NXT retains the comprehensive feature set clinicians expect from the Torso family. Users can seamlessly image the heart, lungs, abdomen, and bladder, as well as perform essential OB/GYN exams. Advanced Auto and AI features, including Auto EF, AI FAST, Auto Doppler, and Bladder AI perform with the same exceptional reliability, fully supported by a complete CW, PW, TDI, and Color Doppler suite. Additionally, the Torso NXT is IP67-rated for durability, backed by a robust warranty, and proudly made in the USA.

Ergonomic, Compact Design

Recognizing that scanning can be physically demanding work, Torso NXT features balanced housing and supportive grip geometry designed to promote comfort and support ergonomic use for POCUS users. Redesigned from the inside out, the probe is more compact in the hand, being smaller by volume and narrower than its predecessor. A new 360-degree grip lets clinicians hold the probe comfortably from any angle, supporting them through extended scanning and long shifts.

Optimized for Dependability and Quick Repair

To minimize disruption in fast-paced clinical environments, Torso NXT features a fully replaceable wired cable secured by a heavy-duty, screw-locking reinforced collar. This highly reliable connection eliminates the lag, added weight, and battery management issues often associated with wireless devices. Should the cable experience routine wear and tear, clinical or biomedical engineering teams can perform quick on-site replacements rather than sending the entire probe away for service.

"Clinicians told us exactly what they needed from the next iteration of our Torso device: an ultra-portable, easy-to-service probe that doesn't compromise on the powerful capabilities they rely on every day," said Tony Titus, CEO of EchoNous. "With Torso NXT, we have delivered exactly that. Over the next several months, we will continue to expand our portfolio with products that offer the processing power and image quality to enable even more AI models that will make using ultrasound and the information it provides even easier for our customers."

Availability

Torso NXT is available in the United States today, and is compatible with Kosmos Mobile, Kosmos Plus, Kosmos Tablet G1, and Kosmos Link. Torso NXT maintains its existing FDA 510(k) clearance K212100 obtained under its predecessor Torso-One probe. International availability in additional markets will follow as regulatory clearances are secured. To experience the Torso NXT in person this week, visit EchoNous at CHEST 2026 in Phoenix from October 19-21.
