    摘要: An ultrasonic transmission circulation system of an ultrasound treatment head and method therefor are provided. In the system and the method therefor according to an embodiment, the supply, discharge, and circulation of the ultrasonic transmission medium with respect to the ultrasound treatment head are all possible by means of a single pump. Further, in the system and the method therefor according to an embodiment, a single system is driven by changing a passage through selective opening and closing of the valves in the system according to the material of a membrane, so that there is no need to drive a separate system for each membrane material.
