A water conditioning system for maintaining and conditioning the water used in an ultrasound imaging system especially adapted to perform diagnosis of the human breast. The system includes a cabinet enclosing a main tank which contains an ultrasound transducer and associated focusing lens submerged in water. The main tank has associated with it a main reservoir. A second quantity of water which is adapted to receive the patient's breast is contained in a flexible bag having an open end supported adjacent the patient and having a closed end draped into engagement with the water in the pool and the water in the tank. The suspension pool also has a reservoir associated with it. The main tank and the suspension pool each have separate but interdependent fluid circulation circuits for conditioning the water in the tank and the suspension pool to provide a good transmission medium by filtering heating purifying and monitoring the water level of the water in the tank and in the suspension pool.
