An ultrasonic imaging system and method for imaging human or animal tissue having a surface and including a probe assembly which comprises a platen (30) for defining a surface (32) in a manner supporting the tissue for imaging, transducer (34) provides an output ultrasonic beam and means (36) positions the transducer (34) closely adjacent supporting means (30) in a manner directing the ultrasonic beam on the surface (32) and so that the size of the beam at its focal point is as small as possible to maximize the resolution of the system.
L'invention se rapporte à un système et un procédé d'imagerie par ultrasons qui permet de visualiser un tissu chez l'homme ou l'animal. Ce système comporte une surface et un ensemble sonde comprenant une plaque (30) qui forme une surface (32) de manière à supporter le tissu à visualiser. Un transducteur (34) génère un faisceau d'ultrasons, et un dispositif (36) positionne le transducteur (34) tout à côté de l'élément support (30) de façon à diriger le faisceau d'ultrasons sur la surface (32), et de sorte que la taille du faisceau au niveau de son point focal soit aussi petite que possible afin de maximixer la résolution du système.
