Given the regulatory process, I would envision AI along the lines of "region proposal". That is software to highlight or draw one's attention to a certain portion of the image that "may" have X or something interesting. That's in contrast to diagnosis software where it'd say this portion "is" X.
I should add there are several hand-held portable ultrasound machines, like from SonoSite and Clarius, and would agree that the selling point here is the price point. To the best of my knowledge, the cost of ultrasound machines has gone down by two orders of magnitude with somewhat comparable resolutions. I believe the top-tier machines with the best image quality or resolution are still on the order of >$100k (Philips Epiq for example).
The cloud software offered by Butterfly should also be interesting if done well.
