Comparison of 6 handheld ultrasound devices by point-of-care ultrasound experts: a cross-sectional study

Abstract

The overall satisfaction with image quality was rated highest with Vscan Air^™, Lumify^™, and Mindray TE Air^™when acquiring right upper quadrant, apical 4-chamber, and superficial neck and lung views. No single handheld was perceived to be superior in image quality for all views. Vscan Air^™ was rated highest for overall ease of use and was the most preferred handheld for purchase by POCUS experts.
