Handheld ultrasound in cardiology: Current perspective

Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2023
The advantages of ultrasonography do not need to be discussed. It is suitable for use in diverse clinical settings and environments by operators with different backgrounds. Recent technological advances have led not only to the enhancement of the diagnostic capabilities of stationary ultrasound systems but also to miniaturization, which in turn led to ...

Handheld ultrasound in training – The future is getting smaller! [PDF]

Journal of the Intensive Care Society, 2020
Traditional ultrasound teaching is normally delivered using large, costly and often quite advanced cart-based systems. These carts are often large systems on wheels, usually limited to the departments that own them i.e. clinics, wards or radiology. Portability has been further improved by the development of laptop style systems, which are easier to ...

Ultrasound Image Quality Comparison Between a Handheld Ultrasound Transducer and Mid-Range Ultrasound Machine

POCUS Journal, 2022
Objectives: Not all labor and delivery floors are equipped with ultrasound machines which can serve the needs of both obstetricians and anesthesiologists. This cross-sectional, blinded, randomized observational study compares the image resolution (RES),

Handheld Ultrasound Diagnosis Of Extremity Fractures [PDF]

Journal of the Royal Army Medical Corps, 2004
Hand portable ultrasound has been validated in trauma patients using the FAST technique. The machine’s light and rugged design make it suitable for military deployment and they have been successfully used on deployments in Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq. Ultrasound is widely accepted in the diagnosis of abdominal and thoracic trauma, however, little work

Handheld Force Controlled Ultrasound Probe [PDF]

Journal of Medical Devices, 2010
An actuated handheld force-feedback controlled ultrasound probe has been developed. The controller maintains a prescribed contact force between the probe and a patient’s body. The device will enhance the diagnostic capability of free-hand elastography, swept-force compound imaging and make it easier for a technician to acquire repeatable (i.e ...

A Prospective Cohort Study to Evaluate Needle Passes Using a Portable Ultrasound Device versus Traditional Landmark Approach for Epidural Anesthesia in a Busy Obstetric Tertiary Care Center

POCUS Journal, 2023
Despite its many cited benefits, ultrasound guidance for neuraxial procedures is not widespread in anesthesiology. Some cited limitations include device cost and accessibility. We test the hypothesis that a handheld and relatively inexpensive ultrasound
