ULTRASONIC VOLUME MEASURING SYSTEM ABSTRACT An ultrasonic imaging system for examining bodily tissue by phasing the actuation of transducers to steer an emitted sound beam in a plurality of radial directions in a fan-shaped sector. The reflected energy are received from the plurality of radial directions in the sector and the acoustical impedance variations within the bodily tissue is used to provide a reconstructed image of the fan-shaped planar cross-section of bodily tissue examined. The rotational angle between a reference position and a plurality of selected examining positions of the transducer body is determ- ined and the associated reconstructed images are correlated with determined angles to generate a plurality of cross-sectional images of the three-dimensional tissue portion being examined to enable evaluation of the volume or shape of the three-dimensional tissue portion of interest.
