In response to the high prevalence of stroke, we propose a system for scanning simultaneously via both temporal bone windows. The characteristics of this window and system limitations guide the design of custom matrix arrays. We present operational arrays with a 7 dB increase in SNR made possible by an interconnect system that integrates the probes directly into the scanner, eliminating the lengthy cable common to most probes. In vivo volumes with color flow have been acquired using this system without contrast enhancement. Future transcranial array design improvements have also been illuminated by this process. © 2010 IEEE.
