AB - This paper describes a new real-time servo-controlled sector scanner that produces high-resolution images similar to phased-array systems, but possesses the simplicity of design and low cost best achievable in a mechanical sector scanner. Its unique feature is the transducer head which contains a single moving part—the transducer. Frame rates vary from 0 to 30° and the sector angle from 0 to 60°. Abdominal applications include: differentiation of vascular structures, detection of small masses, imaging of diagonally oriented organs, survey scanning, and demonstration of regions difficult to image with contact scanners. Cardiac uses are also described. Index Terms Abdomen, ultrasound studies, 70.1298 Heart, ultrasound studies, 51. 1298 Ultrasound, instrumentation
