Ultrasonography is a safe and effective form of imaging that has been used by physicians for more than half a century to aid in diagnosis and guide procedures. Over the past two decades, ultrasound equipment has become more compact, higher quality, and less expensive, which has facilitated the growth of point-of-care ultrasonography — that is, ultrasonography performed and interpreted by the clinician at the bedside. In 2004, a conference on compact ultrasonography hosted by the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) concluded that “the concept of an `ultrasound stethoscope' is rapidly moving from the theoretical to reality.” This conference included representatives from 19 medical organizations; in November 2010, the AIUM hosted a similar forum attended by 45 organizations.1-3 Some medical schools are now beginning to provide their students with hand-carried ultrasound equipment for use during clinical rotations.
