An ultrasound system for assessment of distance between an area of interest and a known location of a non-bone canal for use in drilling an implant receiving cavity in the alveolar bone of a human subject's posterior mandible or posterior maxilla. The system comprises an ultrasound probe capable of being introduced at the area of interest and transceiving pulse echo ultrasound signal to the alveolar bone and therefrom and an electronic circuitry for processing the ultrasound signal and providing an indication of the remaining alveolar bone distance between said ultrasound probe and a canal within the alveolar bone.

L'invention concerne un système à ultrasons permettant d'évaluer la distance entre une région d'intérêt et l'emplacement connu d'un canal non osseux, utilisé dans le perçage d'une cavité destinée à recevoir un implant, dans l'os alvéolaire de la mandibule postérieure ou de la maxillaire postérieure d'un patient. Le système comprend une sonde ultrasonore pouvant être introduite dans la région d'intérêt et transmettre un signal à ultrasons pulsés à l'os alvéolaire, et à partir de celui-ci, et un circuit électronique servant à traiter le signal à ultrasons et à indiquer la distance restante dans l'os alvéolaire entre ladite sonde ultrasonore et un canal de l'os alvéolaire.
