See full text

An ultrasound imaging probe includes a housing (202) having a long axis and an elongate tubular shaft (214) including an internal cavity and first and second end portions (218, 220). The shaft extends along the long axis and is rotatably supported in the housing for rotation relative to the housing through an angular range including one hundred and eighty degrees to a predetermined maximum angle. The probe further includes a transducer array (222), including a plurality of transducer elements along the long axis, affixed to the first end portion (218) of the shaft. The probe further includes an electrical connector (228) fixedly mounted in the housing. The probe further includes an physical electrical pathway (226) having first and second ends and extending along and in the internal cavity of the shaft, wherein a first end of the pathway is connected to transducer array and a second end of the pathway is connected to the electrical connector.
