...Fast acquisition is also possible using 2D phased arrays of transducers (Bureau et al., 1998; Light et al., 1999, 1998), which electronically steer the ultrasound beam across a pyramidal volume: since there are no moving parts, the acquisition is almost instantaneous....

...The transducers used in this study all consist of a 13 11 array including 64 active channels operating at 5 MHz in a 12 French catheter lumen (o.d. 3.8 mm)....

...We have previously developed transthoracic 2-D array transducers operating at up to 10 MHz (Light et al. 1999; Light et al. 2000), and we believe that we can extend this technology to intracardiac 2-D array transducers of frequencies of up to 20 MHz....

...Four matrix-array ultrasound transducers were used during water tank experiments: a custom-designed 5 MHz transesophageal (TEE) ultrasound probe (504 transmit elements, 256 receive elements) described previously by Pua [30], [31]; a custom-designed 5 MHz transthoracic (TTE) ultrasound probe (440 transmit elements, 256 receive elements) [32]; a custom-designed 5 MHz intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) probe (198 transmit/receive elements) [33]; and the 2....
