This is my undergraduate final project: a portable ultrasonography
device, or the "portable USG". The background for this product is
Indonesia’s high mother and infant mortality rate, which is mainly caused
by lack of medical infrastructures that allow continuous pregnancy examinations,
especially in isolated rural locations such as Irian Jaya. This portable
USG is aimed to meet the need for early pregnancy examinations in isolated
or poor areas of the country.
