Title:

ULTRASONIC PROBE DEVICE

Document Type and Number:

Japanese Patent JPH0751264

Kind Code:

A

Abstract:

PURPOSE: To make an ultrasonic probe device corresponded to an individual difference such as the physique of a subject and correct an ultrasonic radiation direction in a case of moving the ultrasonic radiation direction. CONSTITUTION: Holding legs 24a, 24c, which can be freely deformed according to the body surface shape of a subject and is constituted of members holding the deformed state for a long time are provided. A rotational movement motor 36 and a tilt motor 40a, which swings and rotationally moves an ultrasonic probe 12 in a desired direction is provided in a holding part 18. The holding legs 24a, 24c are stuck to the body surface of the subject by freely deformed according to the body surface shape of the subject. In this case, the holding legs 24a, 24b hold their deformed states for a long time. A tomographic image is provided by sending and receiving the ultrasonic wave from the ultrasonic probe 12. The ultrasonic probe 12 is swung or rotationally moved in a desired direction by the rotational movement motor 36 or the tilt motor 40a so as to correct the ultrasonic radiation direction.
