What is GUSI?
GUSI, or Global Ultrasound Institute, helps doctors, nurses, and healthcare teams bring ultrasound to the bedside. We offer everything needed to make ultrasound part of everyday patient care, including training, support, and easy-to-use tools that help clinics and hospitals store and manage ultrasound images.
Our Upscan platform lets healthcare providers save, share, and review ultrasound scans from any device. All images are automatically made anonymous and safely stored in a secure, cloud system that meets strict privacy rules like HIPAA. Because we use the medical standard called DICOM, images are easy to organize and work smoothly with hospital systems.
GUSI makes it simple for healthcare teams to use ultrasound in more places, help more patients, and improve care from start to finish.
How much does your POCUS training cost?
Empowerment and health equity are the heart of GUSI’s core values. GUSI’s mission is to make the best quality POCUS training affordable and accessible for clinicians worldwide. Price structure varies based on institution, practice setting, and number of participants. Please see our courses for specific pricing.
What medical specialties can apply to the program?
GUSI founders are family doctors who have trained hundreds of physicians in various specialties including family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, OB, and emergency medicine. Any clinician of any specialty is eligible to apply.
Can medical professionals from other fields, train with GUSI?
Yes. GUSI believes POCUS is the most revolutionary addition to the physical exam since the stethoscope. Our training programs are designed for all medical professionals who perform physical exams. This includes nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, clinical officers, physical therapists, paramedics, EMTs, and more. Everyone can benefit from GUSI’s comprehensive ultrasound training to enhance their clinical practice.
