Abstract
Disclosed are surgical apparatuses including a hydrogel-based ultrasonography probe stabilizer to enable ultrasound imaging of organs (e.g., the heart) during a surgery such as cardiac surgery. Procedures for ultrasonic imaging during surgery are also described such as contacting an organ with an ultrasonography probe stabilizer during a surgery such that the stabilizer is able to hold on to and dynamically conform to the organ (e.g., a rapidly beating heart) during surgery to provide clearer and wider view sonograms of dynamic, moving organs.
