Abstract: A device for examination by ultrasonic pulses to produce better image resolution, of the type including the formation of a B-type intermediate image of the object examined on the target of a recording tube, the reading of this image by television type scanning, and its visualization on a television screen, in which there is a modulation of the television scanning, so that the beam exploring the intermediate image describes hyperbolic arcs identical with those which correspond, in the intermediate image, to each point of the object examined.
