Healthcare enterprises are asking for the right tools that allow them to manage their fleet of handheld ultrasound devices more efficiently and securely —from end to end.

Small practices and individual clinicians are asking for the right tools that allow them to improve workflow with image management and collaboration, to allow more time to focus on patient care and outcomes.

New digital tools are now accessible through optional subscriptions, which are designed to enhance the handheld ultrasound experience by improving workflow with secure collaboration, image, and device management solutions for both large and small healthcare providers.
