Overview

Two transducers in one probe – for on-the-go imaging

Vscan™ with Dual Probe transforms physical exams to help enable efficient triage, fast workflow, and a deeper patient connection.

This innovative pocket-sized ultrasound is the first to house two transducers in one probe – enabling a non-invasive look inside the body, with both shallow and deep views.

With diagnostic information in the palm of your hand, this system may help you:

  • Increase clinical confidence, with immediate visual validation of what you feel and hear
  • Reduce patient wait times for clinical information used to guide the course of care
  • Support efficient workflow across your health system for time and cost savings.
