Delivering breakthrough imaging performance and AI-powered automation, the R20 sets a new standard in diagnostic precision and efficiency, helping clinicians scan with greater confidence and comfort.
Danvers, MA – November 24, 2025 – Samsung Medison, a global medical equipment company and affiliate of Samsung Electronics, is set to unveil the Samsung R20 Ultrasound System during the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) 2025 Annual Meeting in Chicago, Illinois. The R20 represents a new era of ultrasound innovation, leveraging advanced hardware and new image formation technologies that power its elevated diagnostic precision and AI-driven technologies, while introducing ergonomic innovations independently validated to enhance user comfort and scanning efficiency.
Rising obesity and chronic disease are making ultrasound exams more complex, leading to higher rates of inconclusive results and creating demand for advanced imaging technologies that provide deeper penetration, intelligent clinician support, and diagnostic consistency. At the same time, widespread sonographer pain and workforce shortages highlight the importance of ergonomic design. The R20 was designed to meet these challenges head-on, combining imaging precision, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and ergonomics in a single system.
Built for exceptional imaging performance, the R20 is powered by Samsung’s Advanced Imaging Engine: integrating cutting-edge hardware with sophisticated software beamforming to achieve remarkable image clarity and diagnostic accuracy. R20 offers more than a dozen AI-powered tools1 and advanced technologies for real-time exam guidance, diagnostic assistance, workflow automation, and automated measurements to help clinicians improve accuracy, save time, and scan with greater confidence in complex cases. Complementing its clinical performance, the R20 achieved independent validation as a leader in ergonomic innovation, meeting 100% of recognized ergonomic guidelines and recommendations2 to promote clinician comfort and healthy scanning.
“The R20 embodies our mission to elevate diagnostic imaging through purposeful innovation,” said Tracy Bury, Chief Commercial Officer of Samsung Healthcare in the USA and Vice President of Global Growth Initiatives. “Driven by close collaboration with clinicians, the R20’s technologies are designed as practical tools that make a real difference in how clinicians work, and patients are cared for. With the R20, we’re moving from a fast follower to a true technology leader, driving innovation at a pace that’s reshaping ultrasound.”
The Samsung R20 will be unveiled in the U.S. for the first time at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) 2025 Annual Meeting on Sunday, November 30, 2025 from 11:00–11:15 a.m. at the Samsung booth #6122 in North Hall B.
Attendees are invited to experience the R20 firsthand and explore how Samsung is redefining ultrasound performance through innovation in imaging, AI, and ergonomics. For more information about the Samsung R20, visit: https://usa.samsunghealthcare.com/ultrasound/general-imaging/r20.
