<p>An ultrasound imaging device (100) comprising a set of bins (120), wherein each bin includes a set of transducer elements (105). Additionally, a set of mode switches (130) or multiplexers are associated (135,140) with the set of bins, wherein the set of mode switches or multiplexers configure the set of transducer elements in each bin to form either a one-dimensional array providing a two-dimensional scan mode or a two-dimensional array providing a three-dimensional scan mode. <IMAGE></p> |
