“Advancements in Portable and Handheld Ultrasound Devices”
One specific trend driving the growth of the color diagnostic ultrasound scanner market is the rise in portable and handheld ultrasound devices. These compact devices offer healthcare professionals the flexibility to perform diagnostic imaging in various settings, such as remote areas, emergency rooms, and even at home. With advancements in battery technology, image quality, and user interfaces, portable ultrasound devices are now more efficient and cost-effective. An instance of this trend is the increasing adoption of devices such as the Butterfly iQ+, which combines a portable handheld scanner with a smartphone, enabling instant access to color Doppler imaging for diagnostics in real-time.
