Dual-Phase Cardiac Diffusion Tensor Imaging with Strain Correction
PURPOSE In this work we present a dual-phase diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) technique that incorporates a correction scheme for the cardiac material strain, based on 3D myocardial tagging. METHODS In vivo dual-phase cardiac DTI with a stimulated echo approach and 3D tagging was performed in 10 healthy volunteers. The time course of material strain was estimated from the tagging data and used ...
متن کاملA new method of spatial compounding imaging.
A new method of spatial compound imaging is presented that improves image quality without the usual requirement to decrease the frame rate. The new method of imaging utilizes three transducers for data acquisition. The transducer located at the center of the transducer system is a phased array probe that acts as both transmitter and receiver. The other transducers are unfocused pistons that act...
متن کاملSpatial compounding in 3D imaging of limbs.
Effects of spatial compounding on image resolution and speckle noise are studied. Using computer simulation, it is shown that spatial compounding using averaged reconstruction can significantly improve lateral resolution while slightly deteriorate axial resolution. The amount of net resolution improvement depends mainly on the compound angle, but is insensitive to the number of component images...
متن کاملA Sibelobe Suppressing Beamformer for Coherent Plane Wave Compounding
Contrast degradation is a critical problem in ultrasound plane wave imaging (PWI) resulting from signals leakage from the sidelobes. An ideal sidelobe reduction method may enhance the contrast without remarkably increasing computational load. To this end, we introduce a new singular value decomposition (SVD) sidelobe reduction beamformer for coherent plane wave compounding (CPWC) based on a pre...
متن کاملImaging with terahertz waves.
We present what is to our knowledge the first imaging system based on optoelectronic terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. Terahertz time-domain waveforms are downconverted from the terahertz to the kilohertz frequency range, and the waveform for each pixel is frequency analyzed in real time with a digital signal processor to extract compositional information at that point. We demonstrate applica...
