1. A resin composition for an acoustic matching layer, comprising a resin, a hollow filler, and a thixotropy imparting agent, wherein the resin composition has a viscosity measured using a B-type viscometer with rotor No. 4 at a rotation speed of 0.3 rpm at 25° C. of 1130 to 4000 Pa·s, and has a thixotropy index expressed by the ratio (V1/V2) between a viscosity (V1) measured using a B-type viscometer with rotor No. 4 at a rotation speed of 0.3 rpm and a viscosity (V2) measured using a B-type viscometer with rotor No. 4 at a rotation speed of 1.5 rpm, at 50° C., of 3.0 to 5.0.
