Linear Probe

The frequency of the linear array probe is 4-12 MHz, which can be applied on ultrasonic examination of superficial organs, vessels, and tissues, etc. Compared with other linear array probes, Stork Healthcare's linear ultrasound transducers have a more professional algorithm platform and GPU framework to ensure clear images.

linear ultrasound transducer made by Stork Healthcare are used to scan small parts of the body and shallow structures like the thyroid in your neck. The high frequency linear probe produces a more square or rectangular image.

Linear Ultrasound Probe Frequency

The linear array ultrasound probe has a linear arrangement of piezoelectric crystals and good near-field resolution, which can be used for superficial inspection. The frequency of linear ultrasound probes generally used for 2D imaging is 2.5-12MHz. Stork Healthcare's linear ultrasound probe frequency is 4-12MHz, which can be used for various superficial tissues, small organs, peripheral blood vessels, such as blood vessel examination, venipuncture, blood vessel visualization, chest, thyroid, tendon, etc.

Linear Vs Convex Ultrasound Probe

The center frequency of linear ultrasound probe is generally above 7MHz and the scanning depth is superficial. It's also named “Superficial Probe” because of usually being used for superficial organs and tissues such as the musculoskeletal, blood vessels, breasts, arteries, etc.

The center frequency of the convex ultrasound probe is generally 3.5MHz and the scanning depth is deep. It's also named “Abdominal Probe” because of usually being used for the liver, kidney, lungs, abdominal cavity, pelvis and chest cavity, etc.

Advantages of ultrasound convex probe compared with linear ultrasound probe:

1)The scanning field of the deep part is wider under the condition of equal body surface area.

2)It can effectively avoid the blind angle of scanning caused by the bone tissues such as ribs.

3)It is more conducive to squeezing the gas inside the visceral organ by using the surface of the arc-shaped probe, which also is conducive to both observation and elimination of scanning the blind corner.

Linear Sequential Array Transducer Ultrasound Benefits

Linear Probe Ultrasound Uses

A linear ultrasound transducer uses high-frequency ultrasound to create high-resolution images of structures near the body surface. This makes the linear sequential array transducer ideal for vascular imaging and certain procedures such as central line placement.

The higher frequency, the better image of near-field resolution. The frequency of linear ultrasound probe is 4-12MHz, so it can used in: Vascular, Breast, thyroid, tendon, msk, small parts, etc.

User Experiences Of Stork Healthcare Liner Probes

One-dimensional or two-dimensional linear sequential array transducers often use phased arrays to achieve sequential variable-angle scanning, and its bandwidth is sufficient to cover the second harmonics brought by echoes, which can not only enhance the resolution and improve the penetrating ability, but also effectively overcome the illusion caused by the help of bone and the inner lining of the heart. The frequency of linear transducer ultrasound can accurately display the cut interface of blood and tissue, which greatly enriches the medical diagnosis information.

In order to avoid the influence of the ribs, Liner high-frequency linear probe has trans oesophagal cardiac ultrasound imaging or peripheral blood vessels for cardiac ultrasound imaging being used. This type of transducer mainly includes phased array and mechanical type: phased array transducer is good for distinguishing blood flow, thrombus, soft plaque and other different tissues, and mechanical rotating transducer has high frequency and high resolution.
