About linear transducers
Linear array transducers arrange their elements in a straight line and produce a rectangular image with high resolution close to the skin surface. They typically operate at higher frequencies and are widely used for vascular, small parts (such as thyroid and breast), musculoskeletal and nerve imaging.
