Résumé

Ultrasound, in its new point-of-care conception, has been called the stethoscope of the future. Goal-directed bedside ultrasound examination, performed by a healthcare provider to answer a specific diagnostic question or guide an invasive procedure, is currently revolutionizing medical practice. It is used by various specialties in multiple clinical contexts for procedural, diagnostic, and screening applications. Point-of-care ultrasound is also a strategic technique in clinical radiology; it brings the radiologist closer to the patient (in interaction and understanding) like interventional and angiography procedures and, as an integrative imaging modality, is a vital radiological tool for decision-making in many situations. In this commentary, we present our observations on the use of ultrasound, in a sincere appeal to refrain from omitting ultrasound as a diagnostic technique in this era of deep professional change, in which radiologists must return to being a true clinical semiologist.
