Abstract
An ultrasound adapter is provided for a medical diagnostic device which implements a transillumination modality. The ultrasound adapter enables the sharing of data processing circuitry between the transillumination and ultrasound modalities. When in use, the ultrasound adapter provides image data at a rate and in a format which corresponds to that produced by the image sensor of the transillumination instrumentality.
