Abstract

According to one embodiment, the ultrasonic probe includes a transducer group, an acoustic transmission layer, and a protective material. The transducer group has a plurality of transducers transmitting ultrasonic waves. The acoustic transmission layer transmits the ultrasonic waves transmitted by the transducer group. The protective material protects the transducer group and the acoustic transmission layer. A width of the transducer group in an elevation direction and an opening width of the protective material at the position corresponding to the body contact surface of the acoustic transmission layer are almost identical. The transducer group is provided at a predetermined distance from the body contact surface of the acoustic transmission layer.
