A ultrasound transducer device (1) is disclosed which is intended to be used for continuous imaging of a patient's head or other body organs (23) for diagnosis or monitoring. The device consists of a spherical transducer assembly (10) held by a patch (4) which is coated with adhesive (21) for attaching to the body surface of a patient. Provision (12) is made for the manual adjustment of the orientation of the transducer assembly while in place on a patient to adjust the area scanned by the transducer. An alternate embodiment of the device (fig.5,6) discloses provision for remote controlled adjustment of the transducer assembly orientation.
Cette invention concerne un dispositif transducteur conçu pour permettre l'imagerie continue du coeur ou d'autres organes d'un patient, aux fins de diagnostic ou de surveillance. Ce dispositif est constitué d'un ensemble transducteur sphérique maintenu par un pansement adhésif de façon à ce qu'on puisse le fixer sur le corps d'un patient. L'ajustement manuel de l'orientation de l'ensemble transducteur, alors que celui-ci est en place sur le patient, est prévu dans l'invention, ce qui rend possible l'ajustement de la zone balayée par le transducteur. Une autre réalisation de l'invention prévoit un ajustement de l'orientation de l'ensemble transducteur par commande à distance.
