About phased array transducers
Phased array transducers have a small footprint and steer the ultrasound beam electronically to create a sector-shaped image. This allows imaging between the ribs, which is why they are primarily used for cardiac examinations (echocardiography) and also for transcranial and abdominal imaging.
