Abstract
Between 2004 and 2009, there was a 21% increase in the overall utilization rate of noncardiac ultrasound. Point-of-care ultrasound by nonradiologists amounted to 41% of all studies done in 2009. Multiple nonradiologic specialties are involved, but radiologists' involvement is far higher than any other single specialty. Radiologists' ultrasound market share remained relatively stable between 2004 and 2009.
