FAQ

The most important answers about the echOpen portable ultrasound scanner

  • What is the difference between a portable ultrasound machine and a conventional ultrasound machine?

    A portable ultrasound scanner is compact, mobile, and can be used directly at the patient's bedside. It connects to a smartphone or tablet. A conventional ultrasound scanner is bulky, stationary, and designed for use in a technical facility. The portable scanner prioritizes speed and targeted clinical examination, while the conventional scanner prioritizes in-depth expert imaging.

  • Is the portable ultrasound machine reliable for diagnosis?

    Yes, for targeted indications. Numerous studies show that point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) improves diagnostic accuracy and decision-making when used by trained clinicians, particularly in general practice and emergency medicine.

  • What are the most common use cases?

    The most common uses are abdominal and chest ultrasounds, as well as FAST and E-FAST emergency protocols.

  • Can I easily learn how to perform ultrasounds?

    Yes. Clinical ultrasound is designed to be learned gradually, with short, practice-oriented training courses focused on specific use cases. International recommendations emphasize that targeted learning enables reliable use from the very first clinical applications.

  • Is it compatible with my smartphone?

    Yes. The new generation of portable ultrasound scanners connect wirelessly to a compatible smartphone or tablet, which serves as a screen and control interface. You can find a list of compatible phones here.

  • In what cases does the echOpen probe echOpen respond?

    The echOpen probe echOpen suitable for examinations requiring Doppler, detailed musculoskeletal imaging, or superficial explorations located less than one centimeter deep.
