Échographe orthopédique portable : des détails des tendons à la pointe de l'aiguille

This page shows real buyer scans of knee, hip, wrist and brachial plexus taken on Suresult handhelds, with the puncture guide running on screen. The entry model on this page is the L14 at $2,300, software included.

Every scan on this page was recorded on this Suresult hardware family, by clinicians who bought it and by a clinical trainer who scans with it. Each clip is trimmed to the scan itself. ·Trusted by 8,717 clinicians →

Réponse rapide

A handheld orthopedic ultrasound is a wireless linear-array scanner that images musculoskeletal soft tissue and guides needle placement at the point of care.

  • The L14Pro runs a 256-element linear array at 10/14 MHz and reaches 80 mm, deep enough for gluteal targets as well as tendon work.
  • Every Suresult linear model on this page carries an in-plane and out-plane puncture guide, so the needle path sits on screen before the injection.
  • The L20Pro images at 16/20 MHz across the first 40 mm, which is the range that finger joints and tendon sheaths need.
  • Suresult software is included with the scanner, runs on Windows as well as iOS and Android, and exports DICOM.

Technique basics

How the exam comes together, probe to report

  1. Start on a high-frequency linear head.Start on a high-frequency linear head.

    Orthopedic targets sit within 80 mm of the skin, so a linear array does the work. The L14Pro runs 10/14 MHz across a 25 mm footprint.

    L14Pro: 10/14 MHz, 256 elements
  2. Select the MSK preset, then set depth to the target.Select the MSK preset, then set depth to the target.

    A wrist or a finger reads at 20 mm. Hip and gluteal work needs the depth pushed out, which is where the L10SH reaches 100 mm.

    Depth scale runs past 80 mm on this hip frame
  3. Scan the healthy side before calling anything abnormal.Scan the healthy side before calling anything abnormal.

    Tendon echotexture varies between patients, so the other limb is the reference. Cine loops of 100 to 1000 frames hold both sides for comparison.

    Cine buffer reads 100 of 100 frames
  4. Turn on the puncture guide before the needle goes in.Turn on the puncture guide before the needle goes in.

    The guide draws the needle path over the live image and prints its offset and angle. Buyer captures on this page run from 40 to 80 degrees depending on the plane.

What the research says

The evidence, three studies checked

  • Ultrasound guidance changed the outcome of a knee injection.

    In 94 osteoarthritic knees randomized to palpation or sonographic guidance, guidance cut procedural pain by 48% and raised the responder rate by 107%.

    Sibbitt et al., J Clin Rheumatol 2011
  • Ultrasound detected occult scaphoid fractures at high rates.

    A meta-analysis of six diagnostic studies covering 236 patients reported a mean sensitivity of 88.95% and a mean specificity of 89.50% for occult scaphoid fracture.

    Ali et al., J Ultrason 2018
  • For full-thickness rotator cuff tears, the operator's specialty did not change accuracy.

    Pooled sensitivity and specificity for ultrasound exceeded 0.90 for full-thickness rotator cuff tears. Accuracy was similar whether a trained radiologist, sonographer or orthopedist performed the scan.

Before you buy

Ce qu'il faut vérifier avant d'acheter

Quel est le meilleur échographe portable pour la chirurgie orthopédique ?

Le Suresult L14Pro est le modèle d'entrée de gamme le plus performant : un réseau linéaire de 256 éléments fonctionnant à 10/14 MHz et offrant une profondeur de pénétration de 80 mm. Pour l'examen de la hanche et de la face postérieure de la cuisse, le L10SH atteint une profondeur de pénétration de 100 mm pour un encombrement de 40 mm. Pour les articulations des doigts et les gaines tendineuses, le L20Pro permet d'obtenir des images à 16/20 MHz.

Can a handheld ultrasound guide a joint injection?

Yes. Every Suresult linear model on this page draws an in-plane or out-plane needle path over the live image and prints its offset and angle. A 2011 randomized trial of 94 osteoarthritic knees found sonographic guidance cut procedural pain by 48% and raised the responder rate by 107%.

What frequency do I need for musculoskeletal ultrasound?

Most orthopedic targets are read at 10 to 14 MHz, which is the L14Pro range. Finger joints and tendon sheaths gain from the 16/20 MHz of the L20Pro. Hip and gluteal depth is better served by 7.5/10 MHz on the L10SH.

How deep does a handheld linear probe reach?

The Suresult L10SH and the D3Ultra linear head both reach 100 mm. The L14Pro reaches 80 mm and the L20Pro reaches 40 mm. Depth steps are selected in the app during the scan.

Can ultrasound find a scaphoid fracture?

A 2018 meta-analysis of six studies and 236 patients reported a mean sensitivity of 88.95% and a mean specificity of 89.50% for occult scaphoid fracture. The scan looks for cortical interruption and joint effusion. Confirmatory imaging still applies when a scan is negative and pain persists.

Is ultrasound accurate for rotator cuff tears?

For full-thickness rotator cuff tears, pooled sensitivity and specificity for ultrasound exceeded 0.90 in a 2015 meta-analysis. That review also found accuracy was similar whether a trained radiologist, sonographer or orthopedist performed the scan.

What is the musculoskeletal ultrasound price for a handheld orthopedic scanner?

Suresult publishes every figure on the product page. The L14 runs $2,300, the L14Pro at 10/14 MHz on 256 elements is $3,700, and the 16/20 MHz L20Pro is $4,000. Software, DICOM export and the puncture guides are included. Clarius lists the L15 HD3 at $3,795 plus Essentials membership at $695 per year (store.clarius.com, accessed October 9, 2026), which reaches $3,475 in fees by year five.

Do Suresult scanners need a software subscription?

No. Color Doppler, measurements, the puncture guide and DICOM export are included with every Suresult model on this page. Butterfly publishes membership at $299 a year for Core and $420 a year for Advanced, or $1,500 for five years.

Which model suits a clinic that also wants abdominal and cardiac scanning?

The Suresult D3Ultra carries a linear head plus convex and phased heads in one 263 g probe. Its linear depth runs from 20 to 100 mm, and its convex depth reaches 300 mm.

Does a Suresult scanner work on a Windows tablet?

Yes. Suresult software runs on Windows as well as iOS and Android. Butterfly publishes support for compatible iPhone and Android devices, and the Vscan Air app is published for Android and Apple phones and tablets.

Can I document an orthopedic scan for the record?

Yes. Every Suresult model on this page saves still frames and cine loops of 100 to 1000 frames, and exports JPEG, PNG, MP4 or DICOM from the app.

Which Suresult model has visualized needle guidance?

The Suresult L10H is the model whose published puncture-assist list includes visualized needle guidance. The L10H battery runs 5 hours of continuous scanning.

Is a handheld enough, or does an orthopedic practice need a cart system?

A Suresult handheld covers tendon and joint imaging with needle guidance at the point of care. Elastography and full quantitative reporting stay on a cart system.
