Abstract
An ultrasound scanning system adapted for scanning a joint of a limb. The scanning system includes a reservoir with one or more walls that define a reservoir interior to hold a fluid and receive the limb therein. A transducer is disposed within the reservoir interior and has ultrasound emitters and receivers. The transducer surrounds the joint within the reservoir interior. A transducer positioning system is disposed outside of the reservoir and includes an actuator to move a transducer carriage along a guide. The transducer carriage couples to the transducer across the wall of the reservoir using non-contact coupling. The transducer positioning system moves the transducer carriage along the guide to move the transducer within the reservoir interior. In some implementations, the reservoir includes a distal closure which the limb can extend beyond. The distal closure fits around the limb to create a seal between the limb and the distal closure.
