I don't think the picture of the fetus is made with a phased array probe. Usually fetal ultrasound is made with curvilinear probes. --Ekko 15:49, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I fixed it. — DavidMack 17:32, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Inventor incorrect

Mr. Markovski is not the original pioneer of Phased Array ultrasonics. Also this is not what the reference given in the article states. It merely states that he made a contribution to the field of phased array imaging.

The earliest reference in literature on the development of Phased Array systems is from Jan Somer of the university of Maastricht who reports having build a working prototype in 1967. See for instance the article J.C. Somer "The history of real time ultrasound", elsevier international congress series 1274 (2004) 3-13 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yonare (talk • contribs)

Thanks, I have removed the reference to the inventor until we find a more authoritative reference. — DavidMack (talk) 22:26, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
