Dallas, Friday, 31 January 2025.
Fetal Care Center Dallas is the first in the U.S. to implement Samsung’s Hera Z20, an AI-enhanced ultrasound technology enhancing prenatal diagnostic accuracy and effectiveness.

Revolutionary AI Integration

The implementation of the Hera Z20 on January 30, 2025 [2], marks a significant advancement in prenatal care technology. The system incorporates advanced AI capabilities that automatically identify 39 different views and can label up to 47 anatomic structures [5]. This revolutionary technology reduces keystrokes by up to 94% while performing 46 essential measurements [5], enabling healthcare professionals to focus more intensively on patient care [1].

Enhanced Diagnostic Capabilities

Dr. Kevin Magee, founding partner of Fetal Care Center Dallas, emphasizes the unprecedented clarity of anatomical details now visible inside the womb [1][3]. The system’s Next-Generation Crystal Architecture™ technology delivers exceptional image quality, particularly beneficial for challenging cases such as high-BMI patients [7]. The technology combines Crystal Beam™ and CrystalLive™ features, resulting in superior image resolution and tissue boundary definition [4].

Proven Expertise and Impact

Since 2007, Fetal Care Center Dallas has established itself as a leader in maternal-fetal medicine, having evaluated over 36,000 high-risk pregnancies and performed more than 1,200 fetal surgeries [1][3]. The center’s comprehensive approach integrates specialists across multiple disciplines, including maternal-fetal medicine, fetal surgery, genetic counseling, and neonatal medicine [3].

Future Implications

The technology’s implementation represents a significant milestone in women’s healthcare technology [5][7]. Dr. Magee will share his experience with the HERA Z20 at the upcoming SMFM 2025 Pregnancy Meeting [1], where healthcare professionals can learn more about this groundbreaking technology. This advancement aligns with Samsung Medison’s partnership with Sonio, further enhancing capabilities through cloud-based AI technologies [5].
