The system has an ultrasonic permeable compression body (2), which has a first surface (8) and a second opposite lying surface (7). The first surface is connected with an ultrasonic transmitting elastic layer (10) and the second surface (7) is designed for compressing an object (1) under examination. The elastic layer is covered with a plastics film (12). This film contains mostly polyethylene.
