Volumetric 3-D Vector Flow Measurements using a 62+62 Row-Column Addressed Array
Experimental results from volumetric 3-D vector flow measurements using a 62+62 row-column addressed (RCA) array are presented. A plane-by-plane steered transmit sequence and its post processing steps are described for obtaining 3-D vector flow in a volume. A modified version of the transverse oscillation (TO) velocity estimator is used, which exploits the focal lines generated with the tall el...
متن کاملSpatial Compounding of 3-D Ultrasound Images
One of the most promising applications of 3-D ultrasound lies in the visualisation and volume estimation of internal 3-D structures. Unfortunately, the quality of the ultrasound data can be severely degraded by artifacts, especially speckle, making automatic analysis of the 3-D data sets very di cult. In this paper we investigate the use of 3-D spatial compounding to reduce speckle. We develop ...
متن کامل3-D Vector Velocity Estimation with Row-Column Addressed Arrays
The concept of 2-D row-column (RC) addressed arrays for 3-D imaging have shown to be an interesting alternative to 2-D matrix array, due to the reduced channel count. However, the properties for RC arrays to estimate blood velocities have never been reported, which is of great importance for a clinical implementation of this type of array. The aim of this study is, thus, to develop a technique ...
متن کاملOF ENGINEERING 3 D Freehand Ultrasound : Reconstruction and Spatial Compounding
A dissertation submitted to the University of Cambridge for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Summary In 3D freehand ultrasound, a position sensor is attached to a conventional ultrasound probe so that a set of 2D B-scans are acquired along with their relative locations. This allows the set of B-scans to be reconstructed into a regular 3D voxel array for visualisation and analysis. This thesi...
متن کاملA Scalable Row/column-addressable Dielectrophoretic Cell-trapping Array
We present the first known implementation of a passive, scalable architecture for trapping, imaging, and sorting individual cells using a positive dielectrophoretic (p-DEP) trapping array. Our approach, which does not require on-chip CMOS electronics, incorporates unique “ring-dot” p-DEP trap geometries into an “active coverslip” array, enabling selection of individual cells from a trapped popu...
