A medical needle (2) comprising a longitudinal body extending between a distal end (4) and a proximal end (6) along a longitudinal axis A, an outer surface of the needle (2) includes a plurality of concave echogenic ultrasonic reflector depressions (8) formed along at least a portion of a length of the needle to enhance the visibility of the needle under ultrasound guidance by scattering and reflecting back toward a transducer (10) sound waves (12) incident thereon, said depressions (8) are evenly distributed around the entire circumference of a circular cylindrical section of the needle, said circular cylindrical section having depressions around the entire circumference is a depression section (14). Each of said depressions (8) comprises two non-planar reflector surfaces, a first reflector surface (16) and a second reflector surface (18), wherein the first reflector surface (16) is a semi-spherical surface, and the second reflector surface (18) is a part of a cylindrical or aconical surface, wherein the second reflector surface having a longitudinal symmetry axis S that is inclined in the direction of the proximal end (6) of the needle in relation to the longitudinal axis A of the needle by an inclination angle a being in the interval of 20-35 degrees.
