Abstract:
An apparent point-source transmit transducers comprises a substantially constant-thickness shell of piezoelectric material in a shape of a spherical-section. Such transducers may be sized such that a single apparent point-source transmit transducer may produce ultrasound waveforms with substantial energy in a medium to be imaged. Use of such transducers in three-dimensional ping-based imaging may permit deeper and higher quality imaging than may be possible with conventional transducers.

Claim (Index 7):
The system of  claim 1 , wherein the first apparent point-source transmit transducer has a spherical radius of between 0.2 mm and 10 mm.
