ABSTRACT:
An ultrasonic probe is disclosed wherein the sonic energy is transmitted by sonic waveguides from ultrasonic transducers at the proximal end of the probe to the ultrasonic directional elements at the distal end. The sonic waveguides are designed so that the sound waves are transmitted in a pure mode fashion and show low transmission losses and low dispersion. The ultrasonic probe is suitable especially for medical endosonography.
