The mobile ultrasound probe myMIDES supports Apple iOS (v11.0 or newer), Android (v8.0 or newer) and Windows 10 (64-bit or newer). The app is continuously updated. The app is free to use.

New updates will be available in the respective App Store or Windows Updates will be made available for download on the MIDES homepage. If App Store notifications are enabled, you will be automatically notified of available updates. Some mobile devices also allow applications to be updated automatically.

The probe can be paired with any number of smart phones, tablets and laptops (i.e. devices), however only one device can be connected to the probe at a time. If you want to prevent the automatic connection between the devices and the myMIDES probe, you must select the WiFi network of the UX-8C ********* probe under Settings/WLAN and deactivate the "Connect automatically" option.

All ultrasound images scanned with the myMIDES probe are only stored locally and thus directly on the mobile phone/tablet/PC. No data is uploaded to a cloud. To see the pictures in the mobile/tablet gallery, you have to open the app under Data Table (bottom right) and the white Table Icon (top right). With a sensitive swipe to the left, the individual images and videos can be opened/played, shared/saved or deleted. With the Windows application, the images are saved directly in the installation folder.

Currently, up to 500 files can be stored in the app at the same time. As soon as this number is reached, the following message appears the next time you save: "Memory full, please delete".

Patient data are secure in the app and during export. However, the display device must be protected by user authentication (PIN, fingerprint or face recognition) to prevent unauthorized persons from opening the app.

Due to the high screen resolution of most mobile devices, there is minimal difference in image resolution between devices. It is recommended to disable adaptive brightness, color filters, etc. that may affect the image.

No, images are not automatically deleted after export, but there is an option to manually delete all images at once.

No, the connection between the smart phone, tablet or laptop and the probe is based on the Wi-Fi network that the probe generates.

The mobile ultrasonic probe allows continuous operation (i.e. sonography) of up to 4 hours.

Either wired via a USB Type-C connection or inductively using the supplied wireless charger.

The mobile ultrasound probe is fully charged and ready for use in 3 to 4 hours.

The myMIDES probe is ready for a scan within 5 seconds. Scanning processes can be carried out quickly thanks to pre-configured presets. Once the probe has been paired with the displaying device, the connection will be established automatically the next time it is used.

Preconfigured presets are available for the following areas of application:
• Convex probe: abdomen, gynecology, obstetrics, cardiology, urology, kidney, lung
• Linear probe: thyroid, pediatrics, vessels, carotids, breast, musculoskeletal, nerves, structures close to the surface

The probe supports the following Doppler modes: Color Doppler, Power Doppler, PW Doppler (pulse wave doppler)

B mode, BM mode, C mode and PW mode.

Yes, up to 1.000 images can be recorded to create a video with a maximum length of approximately 1 minute and 30 seconds.

Yes, for both in-plane and out-plane diagnoses.

Yes, all images can be annotated and saved directly on the respective equipment.

Yes, ultrasound images can be transmitted in DICOM format.

Convex: Frequency range: 3,5 - 5 MHz, penetration depth: 90 ~ 305 mm
Linear: Frequency range: 7,5 - 10 MHz, penetration depth: 20 ~ 100 mm

During the scanning process, the probe warms up due to the ultrasound technology. However, the MyMides probe has a thermal management system that dissipates the temperature well, even during prolonged exposure to sound. We still recommend using Freeze Mode when not actively sonicating and using Color Mode only when needed to keep the probe temperature low.

No, as has already been confirmed by physicians, the latency of the myMides probe is negligible.

Yes, but this requires the Dual Screen Display Mode, which is only available on a tablet or PC due to the required display size.

No, due to the design, the image quality and computing power cannot be compared with that of a stationary device. However, there are many areas of application in medicine where a location-independent initial examination must be performed, and the myMides probe is ideally suited for this purpose.

The screen device should be disinfected and cleaned according to the manufacturer's recommendations. You should also be aware that manufacturers change their recommendations from time to time, so manufacturer's specifications should be checked regularly.

The probe should be wiped down after use with a clean, lint-free cleaning cloth and a detergent containing enzymes. After that, you should rinse the transducer with water until all the cleaning agent has been removed. Finally, the probe should be dried with a clean, lint-free cloth.
Use an alcohol-based disinfectant (e.g., quaternary ammonium salt mixed with water), moisten a clean, lint free cloth with it, and disinfect the entire probe with it. You should then wipe the probe with a clean, lint-free cloth to remove all residues of the disinfectant.
For more information, please read the operation manual.

The myMides probe has protection class IP68 and is, therefore, dustproof and protected against damage after brief immersion in water (max. 1,5 m depth, up to 30 minutes).

The warranty period is 24 months and can be extended to a total of 36 months with an additional charge of only € 300.

Physicians have the option to return the myMides probe within 30 days. The return must first be communicated to MIDES and if necessary, a DHL return label will be sent. The costs for the return are to be paid for by the customer.
