Abstract

See full text

A compound acoustic lens, an ultrasound probe and a medical device that includes the same are described. In some embodiments, a compound acoustic lens for an ultrasound probe includes an outer lens including a first material of a first thickness, and an inner lens mated to the outer lens. The inner lens includes a second material of a second thickness. The overall thickness of the compound acoustic lens is determined as a sum of the first thickness and the second thickness and is less than a thickness of a single-material lens having a same focal length as the compound acoustic lens.
