Abstract: A system is provided comprising a B-mode ultrasound transducer and a support structure for being placed on or near a human or animal body, wherein the support structure comprises a holding device for the ultrasound transducer which is movable and tiltable about the short axis of the ultrasound transducer. The system is configured to move the ultrasound transducer in a first pass along a spatial axis to acquire a first series of images at a respective series of positions, move the ultrasound transducer in a second pass along the spatial axis to acquire a second series of images at the series of positions, and tilt the holding device to have the ultrasound transducer assume first tilt angle during the first pass and a second tilt angle during the second pass.

Abstract: A RF amplifier device including an amplifier element (24) compensated by a compensating circuit (26, 28) with respect to its output capacitance and frequency decoupled from its power supply (26), wherein the decoupling circuit is directly connected to the compensating circuit (26, 28) and a RF amplifier device including an amplifier element (56, 80) and a compensating circuit comprising an internal shunt inductor having a compensating inductance (58, 60, 62) and a compensating capacitance (64, 92) and arranged in parallel to a terminal of the amplifier element (56, 80) to compensate a terminal capacitance of the amplifier element (56, 80), and a decoupling and power supply lead (76, 98) which is connected to the compensating capacitance (64, 92) and/or a decoupling circuit (100) and/or a combination of the compensating capacitance and the decoupling circuit (130) and a module thereof and a method for decoupling the mentioned RF amplifier device.
