Portable ultrasound equipment is a miniaturized
design of ultrasound diagnostic equipment, characterized by small size,
lightweight, and easy portability and operation. This type of device plays an
important role in the medical field, especially in basic medicine and clinical
medicine. It makes ultrasound diagnosis no longer limited to large hospitals or
professional departments but can be extended to small medical institutions such
as outpatient clinics, health centers, community health centers, and even to
households or outdoor environments, greatly improving the accessibility and
convenience of medical services.
