ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a connectable-as-stacked ultrasound probe, a plurality of which can be connected to at least one probe connecting device provided in an ultrasound imaging system, an ultrasound imaging system and a diagnostic sonography system. A plurality of ultrasound probes can be connected at the same time as the connecting device of the ultrasound imaging system and one of the ultrasound probes connected to the ultrasound imaging system can be used as selected. The ultrasound probe comprises connecting devices 13a and 13b adapted for connection to the connecting device 10a of the ultrasound imaging system 10, other connecting devices 14a and 14b connected and appropriately wired to the connecting devices 13a and 13b, respectively, interconnecting wires 15a and 15b laid between the connecting devices 13a and 14a and between 13b and 14brespectively, and transducers 16a and 16b connected in parallel to the connecting devices 14a and 14b, respectively, by branching the interconnecting wires 15a and 15b. The ultrasound imaging system 10 comprises a monitor 10b that receives and analyses the data from the probe through the connecting device 10b and displays an ultrasound image. The ultrasound probe and ultrasound imaging system 10 are combined to form a diagnostic sonography system.
