An ultrasound imaging system () includes a 2-D transducer array () with a first 1-D array () of one or more rows of transducing elements () configured to produce first ultrasound data and a second 1-D array () of one or more columns of transducing elements () configured to produce second ultrasound data. The first and second 1-D arrays are configured for row-column addressing. The ultrasound imaging system further includes a controller () configured to control transmission and reception of the first and second 1-D arrays, and a beamformer () configured to beamform the received first and second echoes to produce ultrasound data, and an image processor () configured to process the ultrasound data to generate an image, which is displayed via a display ().
