Handheld ultrasound may present the opportunity to help you engage patients, which is why physicians are evaluating adding it to their practices. Enhancing clinical relationships requires not only better communication skills, but also tools that close the gap between diagnosis and patient understanding through a more educational and interactive experience. Portable technology, such as handheld ultrasound helps patients see what their doctors see, and provides more precise information, like the exact location of an issue. Having another diagnostic tool is appealing to providers looking to improve patient care.
According to the Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, “By implementing pocket-size ultrasound examinations that took less than 11 minutes to the usual care, we corrected, verified or added important diagnoses in more than 1 of 3 emergency medical admissions. Point-of-care examinations with a pocket-size imaging device increased medical residents’ diagnostic accuracy and capability.”
Adding a handheld ultrasound exam may also pave the way for rapid diagnosis during a regular doctor’s visit. During an appointment, you may make an immediate decision whether your patient needs to see a specialist and may fast-track needed therapy and reduce any stress patients might have about their symptoms.
Yes! Vscan Air’s easy-to-use probe is paired with an app that is user validated to be intuitive and consistent for healthcare software.

Vscan Air handheld ultrasound configures to your practice’s needs. The ultrasound system facilitates a flexible wireless workflow, making it easy to send images and data wherever you need them to be stored or shared.
Exams can be manually labeled with patient information. Vscan Air synchronizes on-board DICOM Modality Worklist on request. Such worklist supports consistent labeling of images, videos and exams before exporting to DICOM® PACS. Data for up to 500 exams can be stored on mobile device and is stored in generic formats: jpg for still frames, mpg for videos. Complementing storage of binary image data can be selected.
All data is organized as individual examinations with collection of images and can be linked with patient identification and can be recalled for review. All saved data will be secured with FIPS 140-2 compliant database encryption.
