The author discusses the use of hand carried ultrasonographs (HCU) for patients care. He comments on the study conducted by JM DeCara and colleagues which examines the use of HCU in patients referred to their Echo Lab by experienced physician-echocardiographers and internists. He also mentions the study conducted by GIW Galasko and colleagues which suggests that HCU is a useful tool in screening for heart failure in the community.
