Development of ultrasonic imaging transducer / 国际生物医学工程杂志

ABSTRACT

Transducer,which acts as both ultrasound emitter and echo receiver,is the most important acoustics part in medical ultrasonic imaging system.The development of ultrasonic imaging technology makes ultrasound image clearer and more intuitionistic.This paper mainly introduces the technical development and the prospects of piezocomposite transducer,piezoelectric single crystal transducer,wide-band transducer,3D imaging transducer and capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer(cMUT).
