ABSTRACT:
A rotatable finger probe provides rotation of an image plane about an image axis in interoperative and intra cavity ultrasound imaging applications. A finger clip attaches the rotatable finger probe to a physician's finger and by movement of the finger, the imaging axis is aimed at a patient's body part to be imaged. Once the image axis is aimed at the patient's body part, rotation of the image plane by the rotatable finger probe is activated remotely.
