An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. FIG. 1 shows the configuration of an intracorporeal ultrasound diagnostic apparatus. 4 is an ultrasonic image drawing and ultrasonic pulse generation/reception device. The intrabody cavity ultrasound probe 1, which has a flexible tube 2 that can be freely inserted and removed into the body cavity, obtains information signals for depicting ultrasound images inside the body cavity, and transmits the information to the body cavity 4 via a cable 3. Input the signal. The information signal inputted here is obtained by the components shown in FIG. 2, which is an enlarged view of the tip of FIG. This means that 8.70 two ultrasonic transducers with different frequencies and focus points are used.
The drive shaft 13 and the driven shaft 9 cause sillial rotational movement.
