Zusammenfassung:	The present invention generally relates to, inter alia, devices, methods, and systems for use in medical applications for humans and animals involving long duration ultrasound treatment. An ultrasound transducer array is provided that includes (i) a plurality of ultrasound transducers arranged in a matrix formation and operably coupled to an electrical network and (ii) a mesh structure securing the plurality of ultrasound transducers in the matrix formation, where each ultrasound transducer is connected to the electrical network in a manner sufficient to allow each ultrasound transducer to operate independent of one another or in unison. Ultrasound systems including the ultrasound transducer array and methods of using the ultrasound systems are also disclosed.
