Abstract

A connector assembly connects an ultrasound transducer to an ultrasound catheter that has an ultrasound transmission member extending longitudinally therethrough. The connector assembly has an ultrasound transducer having a transducer housing, and an extension having a proximal end attached to the distal end of the transducer housing. The connector assembly also includes a ring assembly having an inner ring and an outer ring that is received inside the bore of the outer ring. The connector assembly also includes a catheter knob having a proximal end that is removably coupled to the extension. The inner ring is moved from a non-supporting position with the extension positioned inside the bore of the inner ring, to a supporting position with the catheter knob positioned inside the bore of the inner ring.
