The present application provides an ultrasound probe comprising a housing that includes a coupling interface having a sinusoidal geometry. The housing is formed by a first body () and a second body having opposite and corresponding sinusoidal geometries. The first body includes a first proximal portion () and a first distal portion (). The first proximal portion comprises a first sinusoidal shape (). The second body includes a second proximal portion and a second distal portion. The second proximal portion comprises an opposite second sinusoidal shape. The first body and the second body are coupled to form a handle having a sinusoidal interface. Further, the first distal portion and the second distal portion form a head portion at which the ultrasound transducer assembly is disposed.
