Koning Health Makes Historic Entry into UAE with Koning Vera Installation for Breast Imaging

Koning Health Expands Its Global Presence in UAE

Koning Health, a leader in breast imaging technology, has proudly marked a significant milestone by installing its groundbreaking Koning Vera system at the Family Health Promotion Center located in Sharjah, UAE. This installation not only signifies the company's foray into the UAE healthcare market but also represents a concerted effort to enhance breast cancer detection and patient comfort across the Middle East.

In collaboration with FourMed Medical Supplies LLC, Koning Health aims to revolutionize diagnostic imaging in the region. FourMed has been pivotal in facilitating the delivery of Koning Vera, which is touted as the first and only no-compression 3D breast imaging system in the Middle East. This cutting-edge technology allows for high-resolution, true isotropic images to be captured in a remarkably swift seven-second scan — a considerable improvement over traditional imaging processes.

David Georges, President of Koning, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "We are honored to bring the Koning Vera to the UAE and to partner with the Family Health Promotion Center in enhancing women's health by providing access to state-of-the-art diagnostic tools." This sentiment was echoed by Maher Bannourah, Director of Koning International, who emphasized that this installation is about more than just technology; it is about completely transforming how women experience breast imaging. He noted, "By bringing compassionate, patient-centered solutions to the Middle East, we’re making strides toward ensuring that early detection is accessible, comfortable, and truly life-changing for women in the region."

The Koning Vera system stands out not only for its innovative approach but also for its clinical benefits. It enables healthcare professionals to visualize breast tissue in three dimensions without the need for painful compressions and operates at radiation levels comparable to conventional mammograms. This technology leads to a higher accuracy in diagnoses, reduces unnecessary biopsies, and ensures that patients experience a significantly more comfortable imaging journey.

Essam El Sayed, General Manager of FourMed Medical Supplies LLC, articulated the ambition behind their partnership with Koning, stating, "At FourMed, we are incredibly proud to contribute to shaping the future of diagnostic healthcare in the UAE and the larger region. The introduction of the Koning Vera does not merely represent a technological leap; it symbolizes our unwavering commitment to empowering healthcare providers with pioneering solutions that prioritize early detection, patient comfort, and clinical precision. This venture is a testament to our dedication to supporting the UAE's healthcare vision, ensuring that access to groundbreaking innovation is a standard practice rather than a privilege."

The launch of the Vera system at the Family Health Promotion Center aligns perfectly with the UAE's increasing focus on women's health issues. It underscores Koning’s mission to make high-quality imaging services accessible to patients globally. As healthcare continues to evolve, such innovations play a crucial role in ensuring that early disease detection becomes a norm rather than an exception.
