Abstract: Disclosed is a single ultrasound imaging probe 101 comprising a single ultrasound transducer array 103 comprising a first array segment 201 comprising a K plurality of ultrasound transducer elements 103a and an orthogonally arranged second array segment 202 comprising an M plurality of ultrasound transducer elements 103b such that the first array segment 201 and the second array segment 202 comprise a K plurality of ultrasound transducer elements 103a plus an M plurality of ultrasound transducer elements 103b which are electrically connected to provide for the simultaneous display of a scan-converted transverse view ultrasound image and of a scan-converted longitudinal view ultrasound image in a video display 406 of a target scan region for three-dimensional alignment, guided by a projected light beam, of an exterior device in order to access an interior structure below the exterior target region.

Abstract: A system and method from improving the image quality achievable with an ultrasound transducer by using a composite aperture for receiving ultrasound echoes. By using two receive cycles per vector, twice as many transducers may be used for receiving ultrasound imaging data than there are physical channels available in the ultrasound probe. An ultrasound probe utilizing a composite aperture can achieve high image quality from a system have reduced power, size, cost and complexity.
