Zusammenfassung:An ultrasound imaging probe assembly (1a) has multiple piezoelectric elements (3) producing an array of scanned ultrasound signals and being connected by insulated conductors (4) to an electronic scanner to convert the signals to an image, the insulated conductors (4) and an uninsulated conductor (15) are concentric with an inner conductor (8) and a conducting shield (7), and the insulated conductors (4) are capacitively coupled to the inner conductor (8) and the shield (7) to provide an ultrasound transducer assembly (1) of compact size.
