The table below lists when you should think about using each type of ultrasound probe. In this post we will go over the 4 most common Point of Care Ultrasound probes you will encounter (linear, curvilinear, phased array, and endocavitary probes).
Does it involve a cavity (pelvic, peritonsillar abscess). How big or small of a footprint do I need?. How deep are the structures I’m trying to visualize?. What application am I using the ultrasound machine for?. So before you start scanning, always ask yourself these questions to help pick your ultrasound probe: For example, if you used a linear probe, that has great resolution but minimal depth, you will not be able to visualize much if any of the heart. Like with anything else you do, the right tool will be needed for the right situations. The single most important factor that will determine if you can get proper ultrasound images is choosing the correct ultrasound probe or transducer.
