Handheld ultrasound for remote medicine: eight windows on one probe
Eight windows on this page were captured by D3Ultra owners, from lung B-lines to a right internal carotid artery in power Doppler. Every model publishes its price, includes its software and carries no subscription.
Kurze Antwort
A handheld ultrasound for remote medicine is a battery-powered wireless probe that scans lung, abdomen, kidney, bladder and vessels where no cart scanner exists.
- The D3Ultra carries convex, linear and phased formats in one 263 g body, so chest, abdomen and vessels are covered without swapping devices.
- Scans and cine loops save to local storage on the connected iOS, Android or Windows device.
- The D3Pro and the D3L each run a 4200 mAh battery for 3 hours of continuous scanning.
- Every Suresult scanner on this page exports JPEG, MP4, PNG and DICOM from that local storage.

Technique basics
How the exam comes together, probe to report
- Charge once, then work from the battery.
The scanner has no console and no mains cable during use. The D3Pro and the D3L hold 4200 mAh for 3 hours of continuous scanning, and both charge wirelessly.
4200 mAh · 3 hours · wireless charging - Set depth and frequency before gain.
The header carries depth, frequency, gain and dynamic range on every frame. A liver sweep starts at 160 mm on 5.0 MHz harmonic, then gain comes down until the parenchyma reads evenly.
D: 160 mm · F: H5.0 MHz · GN 90 dB 
Scan on the phone already in the pocket.The probe creates its own Wi-Fi hotspot and connects to an iOS, Android or Windows device, so the screen is hardware the clinician already carries. Nothing else has to be flown in.
iOS · Android · Windows- Measure and save before the patient leaves.
Calipers, annotation and freeze sit on the scanning screen, and the study exports as JPEG, MP4, PNG or DICOM from local storage. The capture beside this step measures a right internal carotid soft plaque at 11.75 mm.

What the research says
The evidence, three studies checked
- Handheld ultrasound changed treatment in half of rural outpatient cases.
Across 427 handheld point-of-care examinations in rural Brandenburg, the scan affected patient management in 80.4% of physician cases and contributed to treatment decisions in 49.5%.
Lo et al., Ultraschall Med 2022 - In a disaster field clinic, handheld scans drove seven of every ten care decisions.
At a Port-au-Prince field clinic three weeks after the 2010 Haiti earthquake, 51 handheld ultrasound scans on 50 patients influenced patient care decisions in 70% of scans.
Shorter & Macias, Prehosp Disaster Med 2012 - Remote expert mentoring did not improve novice scanning performance.
In a randomized trial of 37 inexperienced military and emergency service responders, telementoring produced no significant difference in clinical performance between mentored and unmentored operators.

Was Sie vor dem Kauf eines tragbaren Ultraschallgeräts für entfernte Standorte beachten sollten
Before you buy
Was Sie vor dem Kauf beachten sollten
What is the best handheld ultrasound for remote medicine?
The Suresult D3Ultra is the strongest single choice for remote work, because convex, linear and phased formats sit in one probe. A clinic that owns one scanner can then cover chest, abdomen, kidney, bladder and vessels. For long days away from power, the D3Pro runs 3 hours on a 4200 mAh battery.
Does a handheld ultrasound need an internet connection to work?
No. The Suresult probe creates its own Wi-Fi hotspot and connects directly to a phone, tablet or Windows laptop, independent of hospital or clinic networks. Every scan saves to local storage on that device, and DICOM files export later.
How much does a handheld ultrasound for remote medicine cost?
Suresult publishes a price on every product page: $2,139 for the convex-only C5SH and $2,976 for the three-format D3Ultra. Competing handhelds publish $3,899 for the Butterfly iQ3, $5,395 for the Clarius PAL HD3 and from $4,999 for the GE Vscan Air CL.
Is there a subscription fee after buying a Suresult scanner?
No. The imaging software, measurements, needle guides and DICOM export ship with the scanner. Clarius publishes its Essentials membership at $695 a year, and Butterfly publishes plans at $299 and $420 a year.
How long does the battery last between charges?
The D3Pro and the D3L each hold 4200 mAh and list 3 hours of continuous scanning. The D3Ultra holds 2800 mAh for 2 hours, and the 150 g D3 and CD2 list 1.5 hours. All of them charge wirelessly.
Can one handheld probe cover lung, abdomen and the heart?
Yes. The D3Ultra, D3Pro, D3L and D3 each carry convex, linear and phased formats in one device. Buyer captures on the D3Ultra show lung B-lines, a pericardial effusion, a gallbladder, the vena cava, a kidney and a bladder.
Does a handheld ultrasound actually change decisions in a rural clinic?
A 2022 study of 427 handheld point-of-care examinations in rural Brandenburg reported an effect on patient management in 80.4% of physician cases. The same study reported a contribution to treatment decisions in 49.5% of cases.
Is a handheld enough in a disaster or field clinic?
In a Port-au-Prince field clinic after the 2010 Haiti earthquake, 51 handheld scans on 50 patients influenced care decisions in 70% of scans. The authors reported the highest yield for abdominal and pregnancy scanning.
Do I need a remote expert guiding the scan?
No. A trained operator scans without a remote mentor. A randomized trial of 37 inexperienced military and emergency responders found no significant performance difference between telementored and unmentored operators. The paper reported that telementoring may instead reduce operator stress.
How deep will a handheld scan on a large adult?
The D3Pro, D3L and D3 list 305 mm on convex and phased, and the D3Ultra lists 300 mm. That range covers a deep liver, a kidney and a subcostal cardiac window on most adults.
Which mobile devices work with a Suresult scanner?
Every model on this page lists iOS, Android and Windows. Windows support matters in remote work, because a field laptop can be the screen when no compatible phone is in the kit.
What formats does a Suresult scanner export?
Every model on this page exports JPEG, MP4, PNG and DICOM, with a cine buffer of 100, 200, 500 or 1000 frames. A 1000-frame loop is enough to hand a remote consultant real footage rather than a description.
What arrives in the box for a mission or a mobile clinic?
The D3Ultra ships in a lockable metal case with a local mains plug, a wireless charger, a warranty card and a quick user manual. Duties and shipping are inside the checkout price, with delivery in 1 to 7 days to Europe, North America and Oceania.
Which model suits a solo clinician, a mobile team or a spare kit?
A solo clinician who owns one scanner should take the D3Ultra. A mobile team scanning all day should take the D3Pro for the 3-hour battery. A vehicle or backpack spare should take the 150 g D3, which accepts a cable as well as Wi-Fi.

FAQ
Ja. Suresult Handheld-Geräte arbeiten vollständig offline. Zum Scannen, Speichern und Prüfen von Bildern ist keine Internetverbindung erforderlich. Mit einem sicheren integrierten Wi-Fi-Signal verbindet sich die Sonde einfach mit Ihrem Telefon oder Tablet - externe Netzwerke sind nicht erforderlich.
Alle mit Suresult-Geräten aufgenommenen Scans werden sowohl im DICOM- als auch im JPEG/MP4-Format gespeichert, komplett mit allen Anmerkungen auf Ihrem mobilen Gerät. Sie können die Medien ganz einfach per E-Mail, über das PACS des Krankenhauses, über Cloud-Plattformen oder über telemedizinische Software zur Überprüfung durch Experten aus der Ferne weitergeben.
Ja. Da Suresult nicht auf Cloud-Server von Drittanbietern zurückgreift, verbleiben alle Patientendaten sicher auf Ihrem verbundenen mobilen Gerät, es sei denn, Sie möchten sie exportieren. Dies gewährleistet die vollständige Einhaltung der HIPAA-Bestimmungen und minimiert das Risiko eines unbefugten Zugriffs oder einer Verletzung des Datenschutzes.
Die meisten Suresult Handgeräte bieten 1,5 bis 3 Stunden ununterbrochene Nutzung mit einer vollen Ladung. Das ist in der Regel genug, um eine anstrengende Kliniksitzung zu überstehen, einschließlich mobiler oder schulischer Besuche.
Unbedingt. Die Geräte von Suresult sind für anspruchsvolle Umgebungen ausgelegt und verfügen über ein robustes Gehäuse in medizinischer Qualität und die Schutzklasse IP67 (oder höher), die sie vor Spritzwasser und Staub schützt. Sie werden außerdem in einem abschließbaren Metallkoffer geliefert, der für zusätzliche Sicherheit beim Transport sorgt.
Jeder Kliniker mit einer grundlegenden POCUS-Ausbildung kann selbstbewusst mit dem Scannen beginnen. Für neue Benutzer reichen in der Regel ein paar Stunden praktische Erfahrung aus, um sich mit dem System vertraut zu machen. Optionale Einführungsvideos und klinische Leitfäden sind ebenfalls verfügbar, um die Verwendung in Ihrem Team zu standardisieren.
