Programmable ultrasound probes and methods of operation are described. The ultrasound probe may include memory storing parameter data and may also include a parameter loader which loads the parameter data into programmable circuitry of the ultrasound probe. In some instances, the ultrasound probe may include circuitry grouped into modules which may be repeatable and which may be coupled together to allow data to be exchanged between the modules.茲對可程式化超音波探頭及操作方法進行說明。該超音波探頭可包括記憶體,用於儲存參數資料,並且也可包括一參數載入器,用於將參數資料載入到該超音波探頭的可程式化電路系統。在一些例子中,該超音波探頭可包括電路系統,其係進行分組成多個模組,該電路系統可以是重複的並且可被耦合在一起以允許資料在模組之間互換。
