Using Ultrasound on moving patients used to be Impossible. Not Anymore.
Imaging patients to study the rehabilitation progress with ultrasound following ACL surgery isn’t revolutionary. However, seeing what the healing quadriceps look like while walking or even running wasn’t possible until Usono and Clarius partnered to bring hands-free and wearable ultrasound imaging to researchers.
The wearable ultrasound solution, which pairs a Clarius scanner with research software and Usono’s ProbeFix Dynamic, enables hands-free, stable, and reproducible ultrasound imaging during exercise and other activities where motion and continuous scanning is crucial. It’s the first wireless dynamic ultrasound imaging solution for researchers in sports medicine, rehabilitation, and other related areas.
These two in combination allow us to explore a lot of different possibilities, whether it’s outside the lab or with more dynamic sports. Typically we’d be confined to just walking, and now we can do things like running. We might be able to do some more jump landings and more activation of muscles ….”

Assessment of the Rectus Femoris with Wearable Ultrasound
Dr. Mathew Harkey demonstrates how combining the Clarius scanner and Usono ProbeFix Dynamic enables dynamic, real-time evaluation of the rectus femoris with high-resolution ultrasound. Watch the 5-minute video.
The combination of the Clarius L15 scanner and the Probe Fix Dynamic enables dynamic, realtime evaluation of the rectus femoris with high-resolution ultrasound for MSK research.
For added security and stability during high impact activities in dynamic research, Dr. Harkey demonstrates how to attach the belt to the ProbeFix Dynamic Pro.
