Normally, ultrasounds were limited to hospitals or medical institutions. But now thanks to technology, you can get an ultrasound machine of your own. And all of this was made possible by GE with devices such as the GE VScan portable ultrasound scanner. This should be one device that can appeal to couples who want to avoid ultrasound service costs or simply cannot stay put knowing how their unborn baby is doing. Unfortunately this device would cost you $250,000, something that may perhaps be best suited to hospitals or clinics who want a new way of delivering the service.
