Portable ultrasound machine produce images so that organs in the body can be examined. The device emits high-frequency sound waves that reflect the structure of the body. A computer receives the sound waves and uses them to create images. Unlike X-rays or computed tomography scans, this type of examination does not use ionising radiation.
