发明名称 Acoustic window for ultrasound probes
摘要 Acoustic window for an ultrasound probe including a layer of PEBAX(TM) having a surface adapted to face a transducer array and an opposed surface adapted to face the object being examined and optionally impervious polymer layers arranged on one or both surfaces of the PEBAX(TM) layer. An outer polymer layer on the object-facing surface, when present, protects the PEBAX(TM) layer from chemicals while the inner polymer layer on the transducer array-facing surface, when present, is bonded to the transducer array of the probe. The polymer layers may each be made from an impervious polymer which has a negligible acoustic impact including, for example, polyethylene, Mylar(TM) and Kapton(TM). A method for manufacturing the acoustic window and an ultrasound probe including the same are also disclosed.
