An imaging probe for use in a catheter for ultrasonic imaging is provided. The catheter may be of the type including a sheath having an opening at a distal end for conducting a fluid there through. The imaging probe includes a distal housing coupled to a drive shaft for rotation, a transducer within the distal housing for generating and sensing ultrasonic waves, and a fluid flow promoter that promotes flow of the fluid within the sheath across the transducer.

La présente invention concerne une sonde d'image destinée à être utilisée dans un cathéter pour une imagerie par ultrasons. Ledit cathéter peut être du type incluant une gaine dotée d'une ouverture située à une extrémité distale, afin d'acheminer un liquide à travers. La sonde d'imagerie inclut les éléments suivants : un boîtier distal relié à un arbre d'entraînement pour la rotation ; un capteur situé dans le boîtier distal destiné à générer et à capter des ondes ultrasonores ; et un promoteur d'écoulement de liquide qui favorise l'écoulement du liquide dans la gaine à travers le capteur.
