Handheld ultrasound for pediatrics, from the infant hip to the lung field
Two pediatric captures on this page were recorded on a D3Ultra: a Graf-method infant hip and a six-month-old calf read at 10 MHz. Pediatric coverage starts at $1,767, with software included and no yearly fee.
Resposta rápida
A handheld ultrasound for pediatrics is a wireless probe that pairs with a phone or tablet and images a child without radiation. The probe format decides the exam, and pediatric work usually starts with a linear head like the Suresult L14, at 10/14 MHz across a 25 mm footprint.
- A 10/14 MHz linear head over a 25 mm footprint covers an infant hip, a forearm bone and a lung field.
- The E11 weighs 103 g and images from 30 to 80 mm, the depth a newborn abdomen actually needs.
- Color Doppler, power Doppler, pulsed-wave Doppler, M-mode and DICOM export ship on every model on this page.
- The D3Ultra carries convex, linear and phased heads in one 263 g probe.

Six-month-old calf against an adult on the D3Ultra
One 10 MHz linear head images the calf and Achilles of a six-month-old, then the same structures on an adult. The app holds both frames side by side, and the header reads 60 mm depth, 105 dB gain and compounding on.

Graf-method infant hip on the D3Ultra
A coronal infant hip window with the measurement lines drawn on the frozen frame. The panel reads a 33.35 mm baseline and two angles, 71.6 and 48.6 degrees, the pair a Graf screen reports.

Technique basics
How the exam comes together, probe to report
Pick the head by the depth the child needsA hip, a lung field and most soft tissue in a child sit inside 80 mm, which is linear territory at 10 to 14 MHz. A school-age abdomen needs a micro-convex or convex head to reach 160 mm and beyond.
Linear 20 to 80 mm · micro-convex 60 to 160 mm
Set depth first, gain secondStart near 40 mm and let the structure fill the top half of the screen before touching gain. A shallow field needs less gain, and over-gaining an infant hip buries the cartilage.
D: 40 mm on the header
Hold the hip in a true coronal planeAn infant hip screen is read in the coronal plane with the iliac wing straight along the top of the image. A tilted plane changes what the angle measures, so the plane is checked before any caliper is placed.
Graf method, coronal plane
Record a loop, then export itEvery model on this page stores cine loops of 100 to 1,000 frames and exports JPEG, PNG, MP4 or DICOM. A child rarely holds still, so a loop scrubbed afterwards beats a single frozen frame.

What the research says
The evidence, three studies checked
- Lung ultrasound was more sensitive than chest radiography in children.
Across 30 studies and 4,546 children, lung ultrasound reached 0.940 sensitivity and 0.855 specificity for childhood community-acquired pneumonia.
Shi et al., Pediatr Pulmonol 2024 - Bedside ultrasound was the strongest test for intussusception.
A systematic review of 13 studies in children under 18 reported that point-of-care ultrasound had a positive likelihood ratio of 19.7 and a negative likelihood ratio of 0.10 for intussusception.
Hom et al., Pediatr Emerg Care 2022 - Bedside ultrasound found skull fractures after blunt head injury.
Pooled data from seven studies and 925 children gave 91% sensitivity and 96% specificity for skull fracture on point-of-care ultrasound, with a negative predictive value of 97%.

O que considerar antes de comprar um ultrassom portátil para pediatria
Before you buy
O que verificar antes de comprar
What is the best handheld ultrasound for pediatrics?
The Suresult D3Ultra suits most pediatric practices, because convex, linear and phased heads sit in one 263 g probe. The Suresult E11 suits newborn scanning, because its micro-convex head is 103 g and images from 30 to 80 mm.
Which probe do I need for an infant hip screen?
An infant hip screen needs a high-frequency linear probe. The Suresult L14 and L14Pro run 10/14 MHz across a 25 mm footprint, and the D3Ultra linear head runs 7.5/10 MHz.
Can a handheld ultrasound scan a newborn abdomen?
Yes. The Suresult E11 is a micro-convex probe with an R13 head, an 8/11 MHz range and a 30 to 80 mm depth window, which covers newborn abdominal organs.
Is lung ultrasound reliable in children?
A 2024 meta-analysis of 30 studies and 4,546 children reported 0.940 sensitivity and 0.855 specificity for lung ultrasound in childhood pneumonia, with higher sensitivity than chest radiography.
Can a bedside scan pick up intussusception?
A 2022 systematic review covered 13 studies of children under 18 with suspected intussusception. It reported a positive likelihood ratio of 19.7 and a negative likelihood ratio of 0.10 for point-of-care ultrasound.
Can ultrasound show a skull fracture in a child?
Pooled data from seven studies and 925 children gave 91% sensitivity and 96% specificity for skull fracture on point-of-care ultrasound after blunt head injury.
How much does a pediatric handheld ultrasound cost?
Suresult pediatric models run from $1,767 for the E11 to $3,441 for the L14Pro. Butterfly publishes $3,899 for the iQ3 and Clarius publishes $3,795 for the L15 HD3.
Do Suresult scanners require a software subscription?
No. Imaging modes, measurements, needle guides and DICOM export are included with the scanner. Butterfly lists $299 to $420 a year and Clarius lists $695 a year for their memberships.
Which model covers the heart and the lungs in a child?
The Suresult CD2 carries a 2.2/3.6 MHz phased head and a 7.5/10 MHz linear head on a 192-element, 150 g body. The D3Ultra covers the same two windows and adds a convex head.
Does the probe work with an iPhone or an Android tablet?
Yes. Every Suresult model on this page runs on iOS, Android and Windows over a dual-band 802.11n Wi-Fi connection, so an existing device can drive the probe.
Can I measure and export what I find?
Yes. Measurements run in B-mode, B+M and B+PW, cine loops store 100 to 1,000 frames, and files export as JPEG, PNG, MP4 or DICOM.
Is a handheld enough, or does a pediatric clinic need a cart system?
A handheld ultrasound answers focused pediatric questions about the hip, the lung field, the abdomen and gross cardiac function. A comprehensive pediatric echocardiogram or a detailed radiology study stays on a cart system.
