Abstract

An acoustic matching material supply device includes a frame portion that may be attachable to an ultrasonic probe that includes an ultrasonic sensor surface. The frame portion ejects an acoustic matching material. The frame portion includes an inner peripheral surface, an ejection port, an introduction port, and a flow passage. The ejection port is provided on the inner peripheral surface or in a region including the inner peripheral surface, and ejects the acoustic matching material. The introduction port receives the acoustic matching material from a device external of the frame portion. The flow passage extends between the ejection port and the introduction port, and the ejection port and the introduction port communicate with each other via the flow passage.
