Abstract
A portable ultrasound imaging system for thumb-dominant operations can use a portable ultrasound probe that is configured to be operable using a first hand of the user. The system can use a mobile device that has a mobile application installed thereon. The mobile application can have a user interface and be configured to be operable using a second hand of the user. The system can permit direct electronic communication between the portable ultrasound probe and the mobile device and allow a user to control an operation of the portable ultrasound probe for imaging via user interaction with the user interface.
