No. Item Description
1. Probe head Converts the electrical signal into an ultrasonic signal, 
focusing the sound beams in a given direction; meanwhile, it 
receives the reflected ultrasonic signal and converts it into an 
electrical signal for transmission over the cable. The lens on 
the surface is the acoustic lens. Apply ultrasound gel on the 
acoustic lens for correct operation.
2. Needle-guided 
bracket fix tabs and 
grooves
Provides mounting support of the needle-guided bracket.
NOTE:
This structure of probes in the figure above may vary with 
the matched needle-guided brackets.
3. Probe cable Transmits electrical signals between the probe body and 
connector.
4. Probe connector Connects the probe and cable to the ultrasonic diagnostic 
system.
