An ultrasonic imaging system is disclosed. The ultrasonic imaging system comprises an ultrasonic catheter having a longitudinal axis, a proximal end, and a distal end. The ultrasonic imaging system includes an ultrasonic transducer array disposed within the distal end of the ultrasonic catheter. The ultrasonic transducer array comprises a plurality of transducer array elements arranged on a substrate. Further, a catheter shaft is connected at one end to a handle assembly and at other end to the ultrasonic transducer array. The catheter shaft houses an electronic flex cable which is in communication with at least one signal trace and is configured to direct each of the plurality of transducer array elements to transmit and receive ultrasound beams, receive at least one signal from the plurality of transducer array elements, and construct at least one image of at least a portion of the heart based on the at least one signal.
