Abstract

Although ultrasound (US) scan or diagnosis became widely employed in the 20th century, it still plays a crucial part in modern medical diagnostics, serving as a diagnostic tool or a therapy process guide. This review provides information on current wearable technologies and applications used in external ultrasound scanning. It offers thorough explanations that could help build upon any project utilizing wearable external US devices. It touches on several aspects of US scanning and reviews basic medical procedure concepts. The paper starts with a detailed overview of ultrasound principles, including the propagation speed of sound waves, sound wave interactions, image resolution, transducers, and probe positioning. After that, it explores wearable external US mounts and wearable external US transducers applied for sonograph purposes. The subsequent section tackles artificial intelligence methods in wearable US scanners. Finally, future external US scan directions are reported, focusing on hardware and software.
