    A new generation handheld device - SonoMaxx MX3
    A medical team once evaluated the diagnostic reliability of a new generation wireless point-of-care ultrasound device for abdominal and thoracic findings. And the result is that in all 40 patients (100%) examination with conventional high-end ultrasound and the portable ultrasound device was feasible. Sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive value for the diagnosis of abdominal and thoracic findings was 63.3%, 100%, 100%, and...

    Handheld ultrasound devices might be the key to future medical training
    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 wheel in-between patients/departments. Carts also restrict the amount of training deliverable to practitioners,...

    Handheld ultrasound has become an indispensable part of the ultrasound
    Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is ubiquitous in emergency departments (EDs) and is recognized as the standard of care in the workup of multiple disease processes encountered by the emergency physician (EP). In addition to its recognition as a workhorse for diagnosis and procedural guidance, POCUS is increasingly used by other medical specialties, ancillary staff, and first responders. POCUS is increasingly used outside the clinical setting...
