摘要： A balloon anchor for use with an endoscopically inserting ultrasound probe having an ultrasound transducer element accommodated in an ultrasound scanner head at the fore distal end of a flexible cord to be placed in an endoscopic biopsy channel. The balloon anchor includes an anchor tube which is adapted to be fitted in the endoscopic biopsy channel in such a way that it is partly projected from fore distal end of the endoscopic biopsy channel. Connected to the projected fore end of the anchor tube is a balloon support member of a larger diameter as compared with the endoscopic biopsy channel. A passage of a large diameter is formed axially through the anchor tube and through the balloon support member. A balloon stopper portion is provided on the outer periphery of the balloon support member to anchor a resilient ring of a balloon therein.

摘要： A stopper mechanism for an endoscopically insertable ultrasound probe which is designed to be introduced into a body cavity through a biopsy channel provided internally of an insertion instrument of an endoscope and which is of the type having a bulky ultrasound scanner head at the distal end of an elongated thin flexible cord and being placed in the endoscopic biopsy channel except the bulky scanner head when in use. A stopper protuberance is projected radially outward from a connecting neck portion of the ultrasound probe immediately on the proximal side of the scanner head where the flexible cord of the ultrasound probe is connected to a connecting member axially extended from the ultrasound scanner head. The stopper protuberance is abutted against marginal edges of a front opening of the endoscopic biopsy channel at a distal end of the endoscopic insertion instrument prior to the scanner head when the flexible cord is pulled thereinto, thereby keeping the scanner head from loads which would be imposed thereon upon direct abutment against a distal end portion of the endoscopic insertion instrument. The stopper protuberance can be realized in various forms, including an annular protuberance formed on the circumference of an outer tube of the flexible cord or of the connecting member in the connecting neck portion, and a wedge ring fitted on a fore end portion of the outer tube.

摘要： An ultrasound inspection apparatus detachably connected to an endoscope comprises an ultrasonic scanning portion in the front-end side having an ultrasound transducer for performing ultrasonic scanning by arranging a number of transducer chips in a rectangular arrangement. The ultrasonic scanning portion is detachably attached to a distal end portion of an insertion unit in the endoscope so as to protrude ahead the distal end portion by a predetermined length. In order to hold the ultrasonic scanning portion in a fixed state, an endoscope-placing portion for placing the distal end portion is connected to the base end of the ultrasonic scanning portion, and an endoscope-fixing portion for detachably fixing the distal end portion thereto is arranged with the endoscope-placing portion. A predetermined number of wires connected to each transducer chip is inserted into a signal cable from a base end position of the endoscope-placing portion so as to bundle the wires.

摘要： The ultrasonic probe has an ultrasonic transducer for sending and receiving ultrasonic waves, and a cap covering the ultrasonic transducer. The ultrasonic transducer scans a living organism with the ultrasonic waves passing through the cap. A meshed area having plural holes is provided in a portion of the cap for transmitting the ultrasonic waves. By reducing a density interval (pitch of the holes) below a wavelength of the ultrasonic wave, an acoustic impedance of the meshed area is reduced. Water flows into the cap from a sheath, and then flows outside the cap through the holes. A concave can be alternative to the hole. In addition, the pitch of the holes or concaves may be uneven in the meshed area, so as to give an acoustic lens effect to the cap.
