Lumen Devices·Veterinary

For veterinary practice.
Auscultation that hears past the patient.

Clinician-grade digital auscultation supplied for small-animal, equine, and teaching hospital use. The same instrument we use at Lumen Wellness, equally at home in veterinary practice.

Eko CORE 500 for veterinary use
For Veterinary Practice

A quieter room. A clearer animal exam.

Veterinary auscultation carries its own difficulties. A nervous patient, a thicker coat, an animal that simply won't stay still. Digital amplification and active noise cancellation help you hear past the conditions and focus on the heart itself.

The Eko CORE 500 is in use across small-animal practices, equine medicine, and veterinary teaching hospitals. Eko's work with Boehringer Ingelheim has produced Eko Vet+, a dedicated canine murmur-detection AI that works with the CORE 500. It is rolling out country by country, and we will bring it to Irish practices as soon as it is available here.

Our pick for veterinary care
Eko CORE 500™ Digital Stethoscope
Clinician-grade digital auscultation with up to 40x amplification, active noise cancellation and an integrated display that shows the heart-sound waveform as you listen, so you can hear and see the heart in the same exam. Record, replay and share through the Eko app.
Where it lands well

Three veterinary settings, one instrument.

Small-animal practice

Routine canine and feline cardiac and respiratory exams, where active noise reduction and amplification matter most in a busy consult room.

Equine medicine

Larger patients, larger sounds — and longer listening windows. The CORE 500's recording lets you replay, share, and review on the way back from the yard.

Teaching hospitals

Recorded auscultation for case review, peer learning and student training. Build a library of normal and abnormal heart sounds across species.

Good to know: the CORE 500's CE marking, ECG and Eko app AI features are validated for human patients; in veterinary practice it is used for listening, visualising and recording heart and lung sounds. Saving and sharing recordings uses the Eko app, with unlimited storage on Eko+. Eko Vet+ canine murmur AI is not yet available in Ireland. More in our FAQ.
