Top FDA & CE-Approved Handheld Ultrasound Brands in 2025

As handheld ultrasound technology continues to mature, more manufacturers are entering the field and bringing their devices through strict regulatory channels to reach clinicians like you. By 2025, several companies will have successfully obtained FDA 510(k) clearance and EU CE marking, demonstrating that their devices meet rigorous safety and performance requirements. 

This article outlines the leading FDA/CE-approved handheld ultrasound manufacturers and their top models, offering evidence-based details on clinical indications, features, and purchasing options to support healthcare professionals.

Buyer confidence check: Regulatory documentation tells you whether a device has the required records; real media helps you judge visible workflow. After reviewing FDA and CE status, open the Suresult real scan media library to inspect Doppler, high-frequency linear, and POCUS examples alongside the compliance information.

Understanding FDA and CE Marks

FDA clearance and CE marking are separate regulatory systems, and understanding these frameworks is essential for informed procurement.

FDA Clearance (510(k))

This is the United States’ regulatory pathway, and handheld ultrasounds typically fall under Class II devices that require 510(k) clearance. The approval is from a centralized federal authority for the commercial use of the device.
It confirms that the device is “substantially equivalent” to an already marketed product, with review periods generally lasting 3–12 months. The evaluation covers acoustic output, thermal safety indices (Mechanical and Thermal), and diagnostic accuracy. 

CE Mark (MDR)

This certification applies to the European Economic Area under the revised Medical Device Regulation (MDR 2017/745). It requires manufacturers to show compliance with strict technical, clinical, and safety standards.
Unlike the FDA’s government-led review, CE marking is typically granted through independent Notified Bodies, which assess clinical evidence, post-market surveillance systems, and traceability data. The MDR framework is widely regarded as highly stringent, particularly in its emphasis on continuous safety and performance validation.

Both FDA and CE frameworks demand solid proof of safety and efficacy. The FDA emphasizes comparison with existing approved technologies, while the EU MDR places ongoing responsibility on manufacturers to maintain updated clinical and technical documentation throughout the device’s entire lifecycle.

The handheld ultrasound market is diverse, with established giants and up-and-coming innovators. Here are nine leading brands that have successfully achieved approval under the stringent FDA and CE-MDR systems.

4. Philips Lumify

Philips (Netherlands) draws on its expertise with high-end cart-based systems to power the Lumify handheld line. These scanners are wired-only, meaning they must stay connected to the host device for data transfer and power. Despite this limitation, they remain widely used in hospitals thanks to Philips’ long-standing clinical reputation and seamless integration into the broader Philips ecosystem.

Regulatory Status

FDA 510(k) Cleared & CE MDR Compliant

• Approved Indications: Specific to transducers covering FAST, Echo, abdominal, OB/GYN, Lung, MSK, Soft Tissue, Vascular, and superficial scans.
• Key Software Features: The proprietary Lumify App is connected to Android* devices and has several features, including:
  • 2D, M-mode, Pulsed Wave, and color Doppler
  • Biopsy support
  • General calipers like rulers, length, speed of flow (no e-FAST calculations)
  •  Philips’ reactive telehealth tool “Reacts” for remote collaboration
  • *Philips Lumify probes work natively only with Android. For iOS, a separate accessory—the Lumify Module—is needed to work as a bridge.

• Connectivity & export: Since the device connects via a single cable (USB-C) to an Android device, the system offers excellent image processing and transfers directly to the device’s internal storage. Data export through emailing images and DICOM to PACS is also available.
• Subscription Model: Flexible. All the functions of the probe are available with the hardware purchase. However, Philips offers an optional subscription-based service “Reacts”, which provides two-way video, audio, and real-time ultrasound streaming. It costs $84 per year, with a 6-month free trial.
• Non-regulatory Matters: Since the probes draw power from the host device, they remain extremely light (~136 g) and never require charging. The connectors are ruggedized and tested to military-grade shock and vibration standards. Philips distributes globally through local offices and third-party vendors, so warranty terms vary by region, typically between 2–5 years. Regional taxes may also apply.
