Efficacy of the echOpen Device to Identify Effusion and to Detect Basilic Vein

Depending on the clinical picture, patients are examined to detect the presence or absence of pleural effusion, or intra-abdominal effusion, or to localize the basilic vein

Patients who were first examined with the EchOpen ultra-portable ultrasound device, are secondarily examined with an ultrasound probe used routinely in the department.

In a case of discordance between the assessments made with echOpen and the usual ultrasound device, an independent referent radiologist will use a standard ultrasound machine to constitute the gold standard (GS) rating
