  1. SKILLS LAB

    Rehearse the view.

    Follow guidance for probe selection, placement and image adjustment.

  2. PATHOLOGY MODULES

The essentials

Before you start.

Do I need an ultrasound machine or probe?

No. The app is designed for guided learning and case rehearsal on your phone. It complements—but does not replace—supervised hands-on scanning.

Which protocols are included?

The current learning areas include eFAST, FoCUS, lung ultrasound, probe-positioning concepts, image interpretation, and clinical case practice.

Is the app free?

POCUS Simulator is free to download on iPhone and Android, with optional in-app purchases.

Does it replace supervised training?

No. It is an educational rehearsal tool. Supervised scanning, local credentialing, clinical judgment, and patient-specific assessment remain essential.

Take the case with you

Ready to practice POCUS anywhere?
