The present invention generally relates to medical devices, and more particularly to an improved medical imaging device. In one embodiment, an imaging device includes a drive shaft having proximal and distal ends received within the lumen; and an imaging transducer assembly coupled to the distal end of the drive shaft and positioned at the distal portion of the elongate member. The imaging transducer assembly includes one or more imaging transducers formed with a piezoelectric composite plate using photolithography based micromachining.

L'invention concerne généralement des dispositifs médicaux, et en particulier un dispositif d'imagerie médicale amélioré. Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, un dispositif d'imagerie comprend un arbre d'entraînement présentant une extrémité proximale et une extrémité distale reçues à l'intérieur de la lumière; et un assemblage de transducteur d'imagerie relié à l'extrémité distale de l'arbre d'entraînement et positionné au niveau de la partie distale de l'élément allongé. L'assemblage de transducteur d'imagerie comprend au moins un transducteur d'imagerie formé d'une plaque composite piézo-électrique faisant appel à une photolitographie fondée sur un micro-usinage.
