Handheld ultrasound is suitable for a wide range of care areas, including emergency medicine, critical care, cardiology, urology, primary care, vascular, obstetrics and gynecology, and musculoskeletal imaging. Its portability, cost-effectiveness, ease of use, and real-time imaging capabilities make it an ideal tool for point-of-care ultrasound in these care areas. Additionally, handheld ultrasound is useful in remote and low-resource settings where access to traditional ultrasound machines may be limited.

Pocket-size handheld ultrasound machines have become increasingly useful in emergency medicine as they provide a fast and non-invasive diagnostic tool that can quickly assess for critical conditions such as pneumothorax, pericardial effusion, and abdominal bleeding. They can be used at the bedside to rapidly diagnose life-threatening conditions and inform clinical decision-making. Additionally, their portability allows for their use in various settings, including ambulances and remote locations, to provide timely assessments and interventions.

Handheld ultrasound devices should be designed to ensure the privacy and security of patient data. This includes encryption of data during transmission and storage, as well as compliance with HIPAA regulations regarding patient privacy. Additionally, the devices should have secure login procedures and user permissions to limit access to patient data. Some devices may have the option for data to be automatically deleted or wiped after a certain period of time. It is important for medical professionals to follow proper protocols for data management and disposal to prevent unauthorized access to patient information.

Curved array transducers are commonly used in abdominal, obstetric, and gynecological imaging to provide a wider field of view and deeper penetration. They are also useful for imaging curved surfaces such as the heart. Linear array transducers, on the other hand, are often used for musculoskeletal, vascular, and superficial imaging due to their higher resolution and ability to capture fine details. They are also useful for imaging structures that are parallel to the skin surface.

Handheld ultrasound devices typically have wireless connectivity options such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and mobile network connectivity, allowing them to share and transfer images and data to other devices or cloud-based storage. Some devices may also have USB connectivity options for transferring data to a computer.

Handheld ultrasound devices offer several benefits in primary care and internal medicine, including increased accessibility and convenience for point-of-care exams, improved patient engagement and satisfaction, and reduced cost and time associated with traditional imaging methods. These devices also allow for real-time visualization, aiding in diagnostic accuracy and facilitating timely interventions. Furthermore, they can enhance physician-patient communication by providing immediate visual feedback during the exam.

Handheld ultrasound provides a more comfortable and efficient way of performing medical imaging exams. These devices are smaller, lighter, and more portable than traditional ultrasound machines, allowing for easier transportation and use at the patient's bedside.
