ULTRASONIC ENDOSCOPE HAVING ELONGATED ARRAY MOUNTED IN MANNER ALLOWING IT TO REMAIN FLEXIBLE |
摘要 |
The invention is a fiber-optic endoscope which has an elongated ultrasonic array, such as a linear array or a phased array. The array is mounted on either the distal portion of the bending section (not under operator control) portion of the endoscopic tube or on the proximal portion of bendable portion of the tube. Thus, the present invention includes both a fiber-optic endoscope and an ultrasonic transducer. Yet, the presence of the ultrasonic transducer does not interfere with the operation of the placement of the fiber-optic probe. |
