Posted on 18 Mar 2025

Ultrasound devices play a vital role in the medical field, routinely used to examine the body's internal tissues and structures. More...

While advancements have steadily improved ultrasound image quality and processing speed, traditional machines often come with the disadvantage of being bulky and difficult to transport. Now, a novel ultrasound solution aims to overcome this limitation by combining linear and phased imaging capabilities, offering high-quality, full-body imaging in a portable, affordable format.

Vave Health (San Jose, CA, USA) has introduced the first-ever wireless, handheld, whole-body ultrasound device using a single PZT transducer. This innovative solution is designed to enhance diagnostic efficiency, accuracy, and accessibility in various clinical and educational settings. Unlike existing point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) technologies, Vave's device eliminates subscription fees and hidden costs, offering an affordable option with no ongoing expenses. The Vave Universal Probe is not only affordable but also easy to use, with a range of preset functions tailored to support healthcare professionals in diverse environments.

The device features a gold-standard PZT transducer, ensuring high-quality imaging, and is engineered for portability with a patented probe head cover and a swappable battery. These features minimize downtime and guarantee uninterrupted operation. The Vave solution combines wireless portability for full-body imaging, without any subscription or membership fees and includes lifetime software updates, making it an ideal choice for both new learners and experienced POCUS users. In addition to its clinical applications, Vave also focuses on medical education, providing curriculum support and training. The VaveCast feature allows educators to seamlessly share their screen with multiple Android and iOS devices, enhancing collaboration and real-time decision-making. Whether used by students or experienced professionals, Vave’s ultrasound technology is designed to improve diagnostic insights and foster quicker, more efficient healthcare practices.

"At Vave, our mission is to make medical imaging more accessible to all medical professionals," shared Amin Nikoozadeh, CEO and Founder of Vave Health, "Our unique platform is designed around simplicity, with a wireless ultraportable device that offers intuitive workflow at an unmatched price point."
