What do I think?
I had the pleasure of using the Ebit 30 Vet for a couple of weeks in my peripatetic practice. I would describe this as a good all-rounder. For a basic machine, it doesn’t excel at anything but it is very good at everything.
It’s not too heavy, not too expensive, decent range of probes to choose from and I found the image quality is good. I should just place a note on the image quality that the Chison imaging can be a bit marmite – you’ll either love it or hate it. The image always appears brighter in recordings than I remember it being at the time, but I’ve found this with other Chison machines too. Having said this, I was able to see all I needed to in the cases I saw during my time with this machine!
Summary
In summary,
Pros: Able to have two probes plugged in at the same time, and good all rounder
Cons: Chison image quality - marmite!

Not sure what machine is right for you?
When people talk to me about ultrasound machines, they are often overwhelmed by the choice and unsure about what machine is best for their practice.
In my experience, the most important factor that everyone is looking for is the best image quality for their budget.
To ease the overwhelm, I've designed a quiz that explores your needs and budget. By answering key questions, you'll streamline your search and receive a tailored recommendation for the perfect machine that suits your practice.
