FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medical equipment, namely to diagnostic systems and methods of ultrasonic visualisation. Transvaginal ultrasonic sensor contains elongated case, which includes tip section, intermediate section and base section. Within the limits of case tip section placed is holder with installed on it two-dimensional phased lattice of converter of elements and travel mechanism. Holder has axis of travel, oriented perpendicularly to longitudinal case axis. Two-dimensional phased lattice transmits and receives acoustic waves within three-dimensional spatial area, located before tip section, and is made with possibility of rotation around travel axis. Travel mechanism transfers converter holder along trajectory of hinged rotation in such a way that regulated desirable from clinical point of view vision field is obtained. Method of performing ultrasonic diagnostic visualisation includes techniques of work with ultrasonic sensor.
EFFECT: application of the invention makes it possible to increase efficiency of data collection in clinical conditions and improve characteristics of diagnostic visualisation.
