Choose a scanner that fits your patient volume, workflow, documentation needs, and budget.

Why Use a Bladder Scanner?

A bladder scanner uses portable ultrasound technology to estimate the amount of urine in a patient’s bladder. It can support clinical decisions involving urinary retention, post-void residual testing, catheterization, and patient monitoring. Because the scan is external and non-invasive, it can help improve patient comfort while giving clinicians timely information at the point of care.

How to Choose a Bladder Scanner

When selecting a bladder scanner, consider how and where it will be used. High-volume facilities may need fast scan cycles, onboard patient records, wireless connectivity, or EMR integration. Smaller medical offices and long-term care facilities may prioritize portability, ease of use, guided scanning, and dependable measurement accuracy.

• Patient volume: Choose equipment designed for your daily scan volume and care setting.
• Portability: Handheld and cart-based options can support bedside, exam-room, and facility-wide use.
• Documentation: Consider printers, data storage, connectivity, and EMR workflow requirements.
• Ease of use: Clear displays and guided scanning can help support consistent use across staff members.
• Service and support: Confirm warranty, training, accessories, and ongoing support before purchasing.

Bladder Scanner Applications

Bladder scanners are commonly used in hospitals, emergency departments, physician offices, urology practices, skilled nursing facilities, rehabilitation centers, and home-care programs. They are especially useful when evaluating urinary retention, checking post-void residual volume, and helping determine whether catheterization may be appropriate.
