A transducer assembly is presented. The transducer assembly includes a support structure configured to be reversibly changed between a first position and a second position. Additionally, the transducer assembly includes a multi-dimensional transducer array comprising a plurality 'N' of one-dimensional sub-groups of transducer elements arranged on the support structure, wherein each of the 'N' sub-groups of transducer elements is disposed in a spatial relationship such that an angle formed between one of the 'N' sub-groups of transducer elements and at least one other sub-group of transducer elements is less than about 180 degrees, and wherein 'N' is an integer. |
