Abstract
A STARTLING CHANGE in medical ultrasound is working its way through hospitals and physicians' offices. The long-standing, state-of-the-art ultrasound machine that's pushed around on a cart, with cables and multiple probes dangling, is being wheeled aside perma-nently in favor of handheld probes that send images to a phone.
