Zusammenfassung:An ultrasonic probe provided with an ultrasonic transducer array, and a laminate for drawing out an electrical wire from each electrode, wherein the ultrasonic transducers are classified into at least a first group and a second group, and the laminate has at least a first FPC layer for laminating the ultrasonic transducer array, and a second FPC layer for laminating the first FPC layer. The first and second FPC layers (FPC) have upper- and lower-surface electrode pads for maintaining a uniform level at positions spatially corresponding to the ultrasonic transducers. The FPC layers constituting the FPC laminate (22) are bonded in a region that corresponds to the width of the ultrasonic transducer array to obtain a unified structure, but are separated without being bonded in regions other than the region that corresponds to the width of the ultrasonic transducer array.
