摘要

An ultrasound probe having a rotatable transducer array for providing an improved field of view (FOV) and an improved scan angle includes a transducer comprising a transducer array and rotating at a predetermined angle. A supporting member supports the transducer and includes a rotation guide which is in contact with the transducer while the transducer rotates.
