Abstract
An ultrasound probe with thermal management and methods for using and manufacturing the same are described. In some embodiments, an ultrasound probe includes electronics configured to control transmission and reception of ultrasound signals and a battery configured to provide power to the electronics. The ultrasound probe also includes a battery holder configured to house the battery and transfer heat away from the electronics and an enclosure configured to establish a seal that isolates the electronics from the battery and an environment external to the ultrasound probe.
