Image quality lends itself to improve confidence at the point-of-care and enables the technology to spread into wider realms and empower novice users.

Point-of-care ultrasound is at a transitional moment. We trained with carts that were pretty old school. They were good enough to get the image. Now we’re seeing app-based POCUS run on the smartphones that all of us physicians already have. And the integration with the computing power in the devices makes amazing images available at our fingertips. It has really spread way outside the realms that anyone thought was possible even five years ago.”
