Abstract:
1. An ultrasonic probe comprising: a transducer; a first substrate comprising electrodes formed on a front surface and a back surface and electronic components processing signal information obtained from the transducer; a plurality of first flexible wire substrates connected in such a manner that a first end is connected to the transducer and a second end is connected to an electrode at a side of the front surface of the first substrate with a connection member interposed therebetween; a plurality of second flexible wire substrates connected in such a manner that a first end is connected to the transducer and a second end is connected to an electrode at a side of the back surface of the substrate with a connection member interposed therebetween; and dummy materials including substantially the same rigidity and thickness as those of the first flexible wire substrate is arranged at a space, adjacent to an electrode at the side of the front surface of the first substrate, corresponding to the second end of the second flexible wire substrate.
