Real-Time Active Imaging for Decision Support
Our mission at BK Medical is to provide surgeons with the real-time information they need to make critical decisions, save time on procedures, and get results. With 40 years of imaging expertise, we offer intraoperative imaging solutions to support surgeons in defining their treatment plan based on real-time guidance. We offer products that are sterilizable and easy to disinfect, and continuously evaluate and validate different reprocessing methods, so that we can always offer the best reprocessing guidance to our customers.
BK Medical is a global business with direct sales representatives in our direct end-markets in the US, Canada, parts of western Europe, and Australia. BK Medical operates out of Burlington, Massachusetts; State College, Pennsylvania; and Copenhagen, Denmark.
Active Imaging
Our technology for Active Imaging is based on real-time intraoperative ultrasound.
BK Medical's Mission
From the very beginning, BK Medical has been committed to designing active imaging systems that help surgeons visualize anatomy and lesions, guide interventions, and navigate inside the human body. Our mission at BK is to change the standard of care in surgical interventions with real-time visual guidance, giving surgeons the information needed to immediately make critical decisions.
Now, BK Medical is advancing its mission with GE Healthcare. Together, we will reach more customers and continue to empower surgeons to make critical decisions that allow for better care, faster procedures, and reduced complications.
Their Comittment
By joining forces with surgeons and urologists around the world, BK Medical commits to delivering the support to take patient outcomes to the next level.

BK’s technology is powered by 40 years of expertise in active imaging technology. Our imaging architecture, algorithms, and sterilizable within-body transducers are designed for organ-specific tissue differentiation. Our automatic image enhancement algorithms and simple guided workflows allow the surgeon an image that answers a surgical question, with minimal distractions.
Featured Products
bk3000
View real-time, ultra high-definition prostate images in sagittal and transverse planes for potentially faster examinations and biopsy procedures. Elastography helps identify regions of interest to perform more targeted and confident biopsies. Our unique Triplane transducer with simultaneous biplane and endfire imaging capabilities allows you to interrogate the gland from apex to bladder neck.
Used for exceptional prostate imaging, premium kidney, bladder, and testes imaging, and enhanced lesion targeting with fusion-guided biopsies.
- Dedicated urology ultrasound system with a simple workflow and small footprint
- Wide range of sterilizable urology transducers
- Advanced modes, including Elastography and Contrast Imaging, to help identify regions of interest
- Immediate, auto-optimized imaging using No-touch Autogain and Auto Focus features
bk5000
Designed for Surgery
Ultrasound can advance intraoperative surgical procedures by helping you navigate and identify lesions and anatomical structures in real-time. This is particularly important as the data obtained from a preoperative CT or MRI scan can be outdated at the time of surgery.
The bk5000 surgical system provides the highest quality images that allow you to clearly see the margins of a lesion and to determine the best course of action. Using advanced graphics processing technology, this powerful system provides immediate, auto-optimized images that allow you to see the information you need, faster.
Sterilizable remote control for convenient control of the system in the sterile field.
Product Features:
- Excellent images instantly - no adjustment needed
- Small system footprint - fits easily in the OR
- Wide range of specialized and sterilizable transducers
- Sterilizable remote control for convenient control of the system in the sterile field
- Rapid boot time and up to two hours of plug-free imaging
- Advanced modes: elastography, contrast imaging, 3D, vector flow imaging (VFI)m
bkActiv
- Enhanced Visualization - Improved algorithms that automatically allow uniform image resolution, greater details around lesion borders and at larger depths, and enhanced penetration, spatial resolution, and near field image quality.
- Surgeon Control - The remote control allows you to control the image in the sterile field, from where you stand.
- Simple and Customizable UI - See only what you need with an intuitively simple, Tru-Sense™ touch UI. Scale from Basic to Advanced and create customized user profiles tailored to specific user needs.
- Adjustable Monitor - Turn the monitor to view images in portrait or landscape orientation. Mounted on an extendable, flexible arm, the screen faces you where you stand.
- On-Demand Videos - Increase surgeon and OR staff confidence and competency with instructional videos right on the system.
