An
ultrasound probe configured for use in a multi-modality imaging
system includes a body including one or more electrical components of the
ultrasound probe, an outermost housing enclosing the
ultrasound probe, and an
electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield disposed between the body and the housing, wherein the EMI shield is configured to reduce interference between the
ultrasound probe and one or more different imaging systems of the multi-modality imaging
system. The
ultrasound probe further includes a
transducer disposed on a patient-facing surface of the
ultrasound probe and a cable coupled to the body and configured to communicatively couple the ultrasound probe to an
ultrasound imaging system of the multi-modality imaging system, wherein the ultrasound probe comprises substantially non-ferromagnetic material.
