First, there is the cardiac transducer, whose primary use is echocardiography. In some cases, because the frequency is low, it can used for abdominal studies as well.

Second, there is a vascular transducer, which is typically used for carotid arteries and veins, including those in the legs. It can also be used for the thyroid, needle-guided injections, and in some cases, when the frequency is high enough, for breast exams, as well. It is important to note that when using it for breast exams, it should not take the place of conventional mammography, but rather in conjunction with it.

Third, abdominal transducers are used in organs, such as kidney, liver, spleen, and stomach. Typically ob/gyn studies are performed with abdominal transducers.

Fourth, transvaginal transducers are used to perform studies on women at various stages of pregnancy, during every ultrasound..

Fifth, there is the endorectal transducer, which is typically used to check for rectal cancer. Urologists primarily use this transducer.

Last, the transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) transducer is used to evaluate cardiac studies by use of the echo transducer that produces the sound waves for TEE. The probe is attached to a thin tube that passes through your mouth, down your throat and into your esophagus. Because the esophagus is so close to the upper chambers of the heart, very clear images of those heart structures and valves can be obtained.
