Abstract

A device images time wise in parallel using transducer elements of a group (428 432 436 440). In some embodiments the elements are of a current group and imaging is time wise sequential by group. The groups may be spatially disposed (408 412) with respect to each other so as to mutually intermesh element wise. The imaging may include volumetric imaging. The device can be configured for not collectively using any of the elements to focus nor to steer a beam used in the imaging. The device might be operable to transition between spacing states (404 408 412) at least one of which is characterized by a respective minimum nonzero degree of intra group element to element non adjacency (470) or may be fixed at one spacing state. The transitioning may be automatic in response to input indicative of blood vessel size and/or depth.
