Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ultrasonic probe capable of wirelessly performing a stable probe operation in parallel to a device operation, while retaining a compact ultrasonic probe shape.SOLUTION: A probe 100 for ultrasonic diagnosis apparatuses includes: a probe section 10 including a head part 11 having a plurality of ultrasonic probes, and a grip part 15 continued from the head part; an operation section 20 including an operation tool for transmitting a signal necessary for the operation to the ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus; a cable 30 for connecting the probe section 10 to the operation section 20; and a connecting structure removably integrating the grip part 15 of the probe section to the operation section 20. Even in a connected state, the probe section and the operation section 20 can be similarly used as a conventional probe and, in a separated state, the probe section can be used as the probe.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】コンパクトな超音波プローブ形状を保ちつつ、ワイヤレスで安定したプローブ操作と装置の操作を平行して行うことができる超音波プローブを提供する。【解決手段】超音波診断装置用プローブ100は、複数の超音波探触子を備えたヘッド部11及びヘッド部に連続する把持部15を有するプローブ部10と、超音波診断装置に操作に必要な信号を送るための操作具を備えた操作部20と、プローブ部10と操作部20とを接続するケーブル30とを有し、プローブ部の把持部15と操作部20とを着脱可能に一体化する結合構造を備えている。プローブ部と操作部20は結合した状態でも従来のプローブと同様に使用することができ、また分離した状態でもプローブ部をプローブとして使用できる。【選択図】図1
