Linear Vs Convex Ultrasound Probe
Introduction
Ultrasound is a medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize internal structures of the body. Ultrasound examination or scanning performed by a trained technologist or doctor is called diagnostic ultrasound. In order to perform diagnostic ultrasound properly, you will need an appropriate probe or transducer which generates and receives ultrasonic waves. Different types of probes are used depending on the region being examined and patient's condition (elderly patients may require less aggressive images).
Overview
Ultrasound probes are devices that help determine the position of certain organs in the body. They are used in diagnostic imaging procedures and can help doctors identify various problems, such as cancerous tumours or defects in bone growth.
There are two main types of ultrasound probes: linear ultrasound probes and convex ultrasound probes. While both devices use sound waves to detect abnormalities within the body, they work differently from one another.
Definition
A linear ultrasound probe is a device used in the medical field to visualize the internal structures of the body. A linear probe is typically used for imaging linear structures, such as blood vessels and bowel walls. The probe is held straight out from the operator's hand and moved over the area being examined.
A convex ultrasound probe, also commonly known as a curved transducer, is an instrument that uses sound waves to create images of internal organs and other body parts on a monitor screen. Convex probes are often used during prenatal exams to examine babies in utero or after birth to look at their anatomy; they may also be used when performing ultrasounds on other parts of the body (e.g., joints). In clinical settings where it's important for doctors and surgeons working together during surgery -- such as brain surgery -- convex probes are often preferred since they offer better visualization than flat ones do under certain circumstances."
Key difference
A linear probe is more flexible and can be used in a variety of positions. The smaller footprint allows you to use this probe on smaller patients.
On the other hand, convex probes are also known as “concave” probes because they curve inward slightly when viewed from above or below. They have a larger footprint than linear probes and are used for specific purposes such as screening mammography and breast imaging.
Conclusion
In conclusion, a convex probe is the best choice for imaging because it provides better resolution and coverage. However, if you're looking for better penetration, a linear probe is your best bet.
Convex probes are more expensive but they're also more durable than their linear counterparts. If you can afford one, then go ahead and get a convex ultrasound probe—your patients will thank you later!

So the night comes and I am still here looking into the dark sphere
So many questions, so little answers, so much love, so much fear
Love of life, love of death
Every moment touches my heart, every second stays in my mind
I want to live like a wild animal, free
Free of being rapped up in lies and crushed by fear
Free like the clouds able to become any shape they want
Free to gallop through open spaces like a wild horse
I want to be like a baby, not afraid of crying
I want to be like a bird, not afraid of falling
I want to be a grasshopper with no worries

Here's the setup. Note that the image is inverted- my head is facing upwards. Be sure to use a picture that's asymmetrical so you can see if the lens is inverting it.

aranus flavescens has subcorneal teeth, scarcely compressed. Its snout is short and convex, measuring a little less than the distance from the anterior border of the orbit to the anterior border of the ear; canthus rostralis distinct. Its nostril an oblique slit, a little nearer to the end of the snout than to the orbit. Digits short, the length of the fourth toe, measured from its articulation with the tarsus to the base of the claw, not exceeding the length of the femur. The tail of the Yellow Monitor feebly compressed, keeled above. Scales of head small, subequal; the median series of supraocular scales slightly dilated transversely. Scales on upper surfaces moderate, oval, keeled. Abdominal scales smooth, in 65 to 75 transverse rows. Caudal scales keeled; the caudal keel with a very low, doubly-toothed crest. Olive or yellowish brown above, with irregular darker markings which are generally confluent into broad cross bars; a blackish temporal streak; lower surfaces yellowish, with rather indistinct brown cross bars, which are most distinct on the throat
Playing with the Hemesh and Convex Hull by Lee Byrons library. Starting Point is the Hemesh Voronoi example. The voronoi cells are subdivided and then slices of the vertices are sent to the convex hull algorithm.
They are abviously inspired by jtnimoys awesome work for the tron movie.
