ABSTRACT:
A transducer assembly having an improved external connection configuration, a method for manufacturing such a transducer assembly, and a catheter system incorporating the transducer assembly. The improved connection configuration is achieved by creating a conductive path from an upper electrode of the transducer to an electrically conductive notch surface formed on an edge of the transducer assembly so that an external electrical lead can be attached to the active portion of the transducer element via the path.
