FAQ

Clinical ultrasound for internal medicine

Why use clinical ultrasound in internal medicine?
Clinical ultrasonography is an essential tool in internal medicine, enabling rapid, efficient patient assessment right at the bedside. It is an invaluable aid in the diagnosis and management of numerous pathologies: chest pain, abdominal pain, pleural effusion, cardiac insufficiency... Complementary to the clinical examination, it enhances the internist's ability to make an initial diagnosis, prioritize complementary tests and guide technical procedures.
What are the benefits of clinical ultrasound for the internist and the patient?
Clinical ultrasound is a non-invasive, rapid and immediately available technique that can be used to guide patient management in real time. It enhances the clinical examination by providing objective elements and contributes to better risk stratification, particularly in hospitalized or polypathological patients. By reducing the need for heavy and sometimes irradiating additional tests, it optimizes the care pathway and speeds up therapeutic decision-making. For the patient, this means better care, shorter diagnostic times and fewer unnecessary interventions.
Why use an ultraportable probe in internal medicine?
Ultraportable clinical ultrasound probes, such as echOpen O1, are particularly well suited to internal medicine. Compact and wireless, they can be used directly at the patient's bed, in the consultation room, on the ward or in the emergency room, without the need for heavy equipment. Thanks to their smartphone connection, they enable easy recording of images and videos for patient follow-up. With sufficient autonomy for a day's clinical practice, they provide optimum flexibility for internists, offering them fast, reliable access to clinical imaging at any time.
How much does a portable ultrasound scanner cost?
The price of portable ultrasound scanners varies widely according to brand, model and functionality, generally ranging from €3,000 to over €9,000. The echOpen ultrasound scanner sets itself apart by offering medical-grade imaging technology at a particularly affordable price. With a price tag of less than €1,000, echOpen makes portable ultrasound affordable and easily accessible to the greatest number of healthcare professionals, enabling the rapid and effective democratization of medical imaging within practices and hospital structures.
