Curvilinear probe

A curvilinear probe is a versatile ultrasound transducer commonly used in general imaging for its wide field of view. Its curved array of crystals produces a sector-shaped image, ideal for visualizing deep structures and large organs like the liver, spleen, and kidneys. This probe’s lower frequencies (typically 2-5 MHz) enable deeper penetration, crucial for abdominal and obstetric scans. It’s a key tool for comprehensive anatomical assessment, facilitating accurate diagnoses in general radiology and point-of-care ultrasound. Optimized for broad anatomical coverage and depth, the curvilinear probe is fundamental to diagnostic ultrasound imaging.
