ABSTRACT:
An ultrasonic transducer probe and handle housing including an elongated base having a longitudinal axis and a multiple-angled handle. A first stem portion extends from the base along a first stem axis that forms an inclined angle with the base longitudinal axis. A second stem portion merges with the first stem portion and extends along a second stem axis that forms an inclined angle with the first stem axis. In an alternative embodiment, the probe and handle housing includes a handle having proximal and distal ends. In this embodiment, the proximal end is coupled to the base and the distal end extends away from the base in a lateral direction with respect to the longitudinal axis of the base. Additionally, a stand-off pad may be removably affixed to the base and may be adapted to contain a fluid.
