October is Medical Ultrasound Awareness Month (MUAM)! Ultrasounds are incredible imaging tools that serve many benefits for patients and sonographers. Since Probo Medical is passionate about making a difference in the healthcare industry by offering more affordable and accessible avenues to ultrasound equipment, we want to promote education on ultrasounds to heighten its recognition as an option for patients. Six other notable ultrasound institutions have linked together during October to support MUAM.

The ultrasound machine is becoming exceedingly more prevalent in the medical industry. Ultrasounds are commonly known for their role during pregnancies, but these machines fulfill far more duties than monitoring a developing life in the gestation period. An ultrasound machine also helps save and enhance existing lives through a broad range of medical fields. Ultrasounds serve multiple applications such as for abdominal, breast, cardiac, musculoskeletal, prostate, and urology purposes. The screening capabilities help healthcare professionals decide a course of action by determining further testing avenues to pursue and other appropriate care methodologies to implement moving forward. Ultimately, ultrasounds disclose imperative information that often result in saving lives. From detecting cancers to birth defects, ultrasounds have the ornate ability to relay what is going on inside someone’s body with little risk to the patient.
