title: Ultrasonic immersion echomammography: state of the art and prospects.
abstract: This article discusses the state of the art and the prospects of evolution of ultrasonic immersion mammographs. It is shown that ultrasonic immersion mammography for diagnostics of surface organs has a preference over existing ultrasonic scanning devices of contact type. An immersion mammograph has been developed, a characteristic of which is the use of compact ring multielement antenna with the electronic dynamic focusing block.
