Zusammenfassung:	A method of manufacturing an ultrasound probe comprises customizing a fit of the ultrasound probe to an operator's hand, including, generating a three-dimensional (3D) model of the operator's hand, digitizing the 3D model of the operator's hand, including obtaining a set of manual attributes, and forming a manually grasped surface of the ultrasound probe based on the digitized 3D model, and coupling the manually grasped surface to the ultrasound probe. In this way, operator hand strain while conducting ultrasound exams can be reduced.
