An optional transvaginal ultrasound probe with a scanning array

Abstract

The invention discloses an optional transvaginal ultrasound probe with scanning array, HOUSING COMPRISING A PROBE, two or more ultrasound arrays, ultrasonic array selection circuit, array selection buttons and probe connectors, the head of the probe housing is provided with an arc surface mounting structure, the ultrasonic array is sequentially arranged on the arc surface mounting structure alongthe arc length direction of the arc surface mounting structure, an ultrasonic array selection circuit is arranged in that probe connector and the output end thereof is electrically connected with theinput end of the ultrasonic array for switch the ultrasonic array according to the arc length direction of the arc surface mounting structure, an array selection button is arranged on the probe housing and an output terminal thereof is electrically connected with the ultrasonic array selection circuit for starting the ultrasonic array selection circuit. As that operation of the invention is simple, the probe doe not need to be adjust repeatedly, as long as the scan array selection button is operated, the residual situation of the uterine horns on both sides can be clearly displayed, the uterine position is clear at a glance, the operation time is greatly shorten, and the operation cost is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a transvaginal ultrasonic probe with an optional scanning array. Background technique [0002] Transvaginal B-ultrasound is a kind of intracavity ultrasound, which is a method in which an ultrasound probe is placed directly into the vagina for ultrasound examination. In the field of obstetrics and gynecology, it has become an indispensable and important means of obstetrics and gynecology examination. [0003] Due to the small number of probe elements and the fixed scanning array of the traditional vaginal B-ultrasound scanning technology, the scanning range is limited. In clinical practice, the direction of the transvaginal probe needs to be adjusted according to the position of the uterus. There are three types of uterine positions: anterior Position, horizontal position, rear position. When the probe is parallel to the posterior fornix of the uterus, the horizontal ut...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] When the traditional transvaginal probe is placed into the vagina for operation, the sonographer needs to manually adjust the position of the probe to locate the target, which reduces the efficiency of examination and surgery. Moreover, because the doctor’s manual operation is uncertain, it is easy to cause discomfort to the patient at the examination site, causing Mental stress affects the test results to a certain extent. For patients with vaginal lesions or infections, this blind adjustment will lead to aggravated risk of infection
