An ultrasonic probe constituted by coupling modules of a same type to each other,
- each of the modules comprising:
- a plurality of ultrasonic transducers equally spaced and aligned at least in one direction;
- a first substrate to which the ultrasonic transducers are coupled;
- an acoustic load member;
- a second substrate folded in such a manner as to be in contact with three surfaces of the acoustic load member, adhered at least to a first surface of the three surfaces, and coupled to the first substrate;
- and
- a metallic member adhered to a surface of the acoustic load member opposite the first surface, wherein
- the metallic member has a surface opposite the surface to which the acoustic load member is adhered, the opposite surface having a shape for holding and supporting a support member.
