About biplane endorectal transducers

Endorectal (transrectal) transducers are inserted into the rectum, which places the probe close to the prostate and pelvic organs. They are mainly used in urology, for example for prostate imaging and ultrasound-guided biopsy. Biplane versions have two transducer arrays and can display two imaging planes, for example transverse and longitudinal views.
