Overview

Handheld ultrasound machines are portable and compact diagnostic imaging instruments that create real-time views of internal body structures at the point of care. Handheld devices often have the ability to connect to smartphones, tablets, or may operate as stand-alone devices and are used in a variety of clinical settings, including emergency departments, outpatient clinics, remote locations, and home health care. Wireless hardware and software that sometimes uses AI technologies allow faster imaging assessment of organs, tissue and blood flow. Their cost, speed, ease of use, compactness, and portability, makes them a cost-friendly alternative to traditional bedside or cart-based ultrasound systems.

Rising demand for point-of-care diagnostics to drive market growth

Rising demand for rapid diagnostics has led to the research and development of numerous point-of-care diagnostic devices and technologies. Handheld ultrasound devices enable relatively immediate imaging at the bedside or in near-patient settings, allowing clinicians to make diagnosis and treatment decisions clearly and immediately in the emergency room, intensive care unit, non-acute units, in the ambulatory setting, and home health visits. With the healthcare moving toward decentralized and patient-centered care models, the demand for portable, easy to use devices in clinical practice has grown. Handheld ultrasound devices have the ability to provide real time imaging, without the logistic requirements associated with fixed-placed machines. This ability supports clinicians in faster decision-making ultimately leading to improved patient outcome, thus contributing to widespread acceptance and adoption of handheld ultrasound devices and driving market growth.

Tele‑ultrasound & remote consultations – A key market trend

Tele-ultrasound and tele-consulting are shaping the handheld ultrasound devices market by introducing real-time image sharing and expert consultation across geographic barriers. When handheld ultrasound devices are paired with telemedicine platforms, it enables clinicians or other healthcare professionals in remote or underserved populations to consult with specialists, maximizing diagnostic accuracy and access to healthcare. This trend is more valuable in emergency situations, in rural health care, and in global health missions.  As the viability of 5G networks improves (and connectivity improves for rural and under-served regions), tele-ultrasound will increasingly become a critically important tool offering opportunity to provide decentralized, flexible, collaborative, and efficient patient care around the world.
