SonoSkills showcasing Functional and Dynamic Muscle Scanning with ProbeFix
Recently, Marc Schmitz, founder of SonoSkills, showcased the ProbeFix Dynamic in two informative videos about dynamic scanning during functional movements. These sessions highlighted the importance and benefits of using dynamic ultrasound in clinical practice.
“Functional and dynamic testing is always fantastic because ultrasound is really dedicated and designed to do functional testing and it gives you so much more clinical information. With ProbeFix Dynamic the patient can do functional movements, your hands are free, the patient is free to move and you can observe contracting muscle fibres.”
Marc Schmitz, Founder & Trainer at SonoSkills
Free Webinar: Imaging Functional Movements in Pathology Recognition
In this free webinar, ProbeFix was featured as an exemplary product for dynamic scanning. The webinar delves into the main reasons why dynamic and functional ultrasound is crucial:
- Clinical Relevance: Enhances the importance of functional assessment in clinical settings.
- Decision Making: Assists in determining clinical relevance.
- New Perspectives: Provides a different view on pathologies.
- Pathology Detection: Uncovers issues that static scans might miss.
- Clinical Reasoning: Supports better clinical reasoning and decision-making.
ProbeFix is presented in the end of the webinar, specifically between 22:27 and 28:02 minutes.

Part of eLearning Course: Hamstrings Functional Scanning
This next video, one of 67 in the advanced MSK ultrasound eLearning series focusing on the hip and thigh region, demonstrates the use of ProbeFix Dynamic for functional scanning of the hamstrings.
Marc Schmitz explains how the ProbeFix Dynamic enhances muscle scanning, especially for larger muscle groups like the quadriceps, calf muscles, and hamstrings. By securing the ultrasound transducer to the patient’s leg, ProbeFix allows hands-free operation and enables patients to perform functional movements such as walking on a treadmill, cycling, or even running on a sports track. This setup allows clinicians to observe muscle contractions during movements like squats, providing valuable insights into muscle architecture and potential pathologies that only become apparent during active contraction. Viewing both transverse and longitudinal aspects of muscle fibers through dynamic testing significantly enriches the clinical information gathered.
