Practicing ultrasound with a virtual online simulator is an innovative and very practical strategy for those who do not yet have ultrasound equipment. I am an ultrasound doctor and I teach too. This virtual diSplay U/S online ultrasound medium is going to be revolutionary for my students and medical professionals.

This simulator made me understand how the use of innovative technologies is important for our future practice of medicine. It is a great opportunity to familiarize as early as possible to diagnosis technologies. Simple and didactic, I was easily immersed in the clinical cases proposed by diSplay U/S.

Learn how to diagnose COVID-19 for free
The origins of diSplay U/S
This module has been developed to help train medical professionals and medical students to diagnose and monitor COVID-19 through lung ultrasound
Real patient data are used to allow a remote training the most accurate possible
Explore freely the thorax and back of three different patient cases, suffering from COVID 19 in different severity level and analyze the irregularities on the sonograph
According to recent evidences based on experience in Italy and China, lung ultrasound represents a useful diagnosis tool in the identification and monitoring of respiratory symptoms in COVID-19, especially in emergency context.
Compared to other methods used to detect and monitor COVID-19 (stethoscope, lung radiography, CT-scan), ultrasound presents several crucial advantages. It is a sensitive and quick exam, easily repeatable and therefore allow an efficient monitoring of the patient over time. It is also radiation-free, lower cost, and doesn’t require a complicated logistics (no transfer of patients to CT-Scan, easy to clean).
