The mean question which should be answered was, wether the investigators would detect the clinical decisive pathological findings by using the SonoSite 180 Plus as often as by using an high-end ultrasound machine (HDI 5000, Philips/ATL). Therefore in 574 cases non selected patients were examined under identical standardized conditions with both machines for ten minutes each by the same investigator. Findings as the clinical decisive meandiagnosis and four additional clinical relevant diagnosis, the used technical features (SonoCT, THI, highfrequency 12 MHz linear array probe etc.) and imaging quality were documented directly after each examination. Results: The same diagnosis was found with both machines in 89% (99/111) of pleurasonographies, in 85% (252/297) of upper abdominalsonographies and 58% (96/166) of lower abdominal- and bowelsonographies. In 75% (138/185) of emergencysonographies there was a coincidence between both machines, when the sonography of the lower abdomen was excludet this rate rised to 89% (105/118). 49% (45/92) of all pathological findings in the lower abdominal region where detected with an 12 MHz linear array probe of the HDI 5000.
