Point of Care Ultrasound - Functions and Settings of the Ultrasound Machine - AMBOSS Video

This tutorial provides an overview of the most common functions and settings of an ultrasound machine.
Most ultrasound consoles have a similar layout, with some variation between manufacturers. Ultrasound machines are typically equipped with factory presets for certain applications (e.g., preset for abdominal examination), which are a good starting point for visualizing the target tissue. Manual adjustment of the knobs and settings on the ultrasound console can further refine the ultrasound image.
