Fitted ultrasound transducer probe holder

A probe holder embodies an insert body removably set into a through-slot of an ultrasound system panel. The holder defines an inner cavity extending from a first opening at a top surface to a second opening at a bottom surface. A side opening extends the axial length of the holder from the first opening to the second opening. Upon insertion of the holder into the panel through-slot, the holder is movable between an open position and a closed position. At the open position the holder side opening is aligned with a corresponding side opening of the panel. With the holder moved into the closed position, the holder side opening is blocked by inner walls of the panel through-slot. A probe cord slides through the side openings while the holder is in the open position. Once the holder is moved to the closed position, the probes cord is radially trapped within the holder.
