ABSTRACT:
A biplane ultrasound assembly (10) including a probe member (14) having a body portion (46) defining a longitudinal axis. A pair of scanning transducers (16,18) are mounted on the body portion (46) aligned along the longitudinal axis thereof for respectively ultrasound scanning different orthogonal planes (23,25) of an adjacent object (20) and transmitting the scans to an visual image processing system. Each of the planes (23,25) intersects the plane (23,25) of the other scanning transducer (16,18) at a centerline (22,24). A centerline indicating mechanism produces an image of the centerline of the scan plane (23,25) from each scanning transducer (16,18).
