Abstract

See full text

An ultrasonic imaging system comprising an interventional device having a key member: a vibrator member coupled to the interventional device for transmitting a vibratory mechanical oscillation in the form of flexural waves to the interventional device, to cause the interventional device to produce a motion according to the flexural waves, the vibrator member including a lock member which cooperates with the key member to assure firm attachment of the interventional device to the vibrator member; and an ultrasonic imaging system which detects the motion of the interventional device and generates an image of an interior of a body in which the motion is locatively represented.
