10 Portable machine ranging from small system containing imaging and colour mapping alone to miniaturised quite full system Comparing the same type of study, high accuracy is obtainable with portable system Focused echocardiography speeds decision-making in many emergency clinical situations Screening echocardiography reduces the need for standard echocardiography in patients with suspected heart disease, even if sometimes further investigation is needed. 2003

11 Portable echo: ultrasound stethoscope Portable ultrasound devices in clinical cardiology: lights and shadows M Penco Ital Heart J Suppl 2003 Hand-carried ultrasound devices may be considered as a "visual stethoscope" which provides an extension of the physical examination, but not as a potential alternative to standard transthoracic echocardiography. Vignon P Arch Mal Coeur Vaiss

12 Portable echo: ultrasound stethoscope Introdotto 10 anni fa come ultrasound stethoscope first sight Funzione diagnostica limitata, spesso non esaustiva La nanotecnologia ha rivoluzionato l elettronica applicata agli ultrasuoni riducendo il gap con macchine tradizionali Ecografo portatile: - flessibile d uso (trasportabilità) - facilita l esecuzione dell esame al letto del malato - costi contenuti - elevati standard tecnologici e diagnostici

13 Portable echo: latest technology

14 Premium Compact Ultrasound

15 The need for ultrasound use growing Ultrasound anytime & anywhere Anesthesiology Interventional labs Surgical suites Office environments Pain management clinics Screening / Wellness clinics Sports injury clinics Emergency department Remote location care Disaster site triage?

16 Portable echo: latest technology Diagnostic confidence : -leverage image processing from superior machines -broadband digital beam and pure wave transducer Mobility: -easily carried to bedside in each department -wide monitor - flexible conettivity (Dicom-wireless) Efficency of examination - I-scan for 2D-Dopper investigation - Anatomical M-mode - Full Doppler investigation ( TDI,Strain rate,speckle) - Dicom images (exporting ) Transducers equipment: TT, TE and Cw-dedicated

35 Take home message. Compact Echo (latest generation): - small size= notebook - Flexible and suitable for any pts and operator (I-scan) -Higher and complete techonology: (atomicalm-mode,volume,ef,pw,cw,color- Dop, TDI speckle tracking, CFR, etc) - Allowing to export each examination in Dicom format ( visible at any PC) - It can be employed anywhere and particularly in emergency room or in inteventional arena - At present, we can consider it no more as first ultrasound approach...!
