Ultrasound Direct toMOBILE™

Imagine having your ultrasound scan photos and report sent direct to your mobile: wouldn’t that make it easier to share them on social media? Or forward them on to your doctor? With Ultrasound Direct toMOBILE: you can.

Using a secure cloud service Ultrasound Direct can send your scan images and report to any device or email address you choose. Once you receive your images you can save them forever or share them on social media at the touch of a button. Ultrasound Direct toMOBILE is offered to all clients on all scans performed in our clinics across the United Kingdom.

Ultrasound Direct toMOBILE has been created with your convenience in mind: your scan images made available online to you (and only you) within seconds of the completion of your ultrasound scan, in excellent quality, and ready to share with friends or family or on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter.

How does Ultrasound Direct toMOBILE work?

Once your scan has been completed, your scan images and report are uploaded securely to a cloud server using a system trusted by hospitals around the world. All images are automatically anonymised to remove any personal information before being uploaded to the Ultrasound Direct toMOBILE study exchange. They are then uploaded to a private webpage, and a link is sent to your mobile device or email address with instructions on how to view your images and download them.

All in a matter of seconds.

The Ultrasound Direct toMOBILE system will hold your images for 90 days. In that time, you can download them, share them to social media, or send the link to friends and family to view as many times as you wish. After 90 days the link will expire. What happens if you need the images again after the link expires? They are also stored on a separate secure server so they can be recovered should you need your images in the future.

Sometimes it can be difficult to see everything in an ultrasound scan image and it helps to have a second opinion from another clinician. Using Ultrasound Direct toMobile, your Ultrasound Direct sonographer can send your images securely to a colleague for their feedback; meaning you can get a second opinion in seconds.
