Single-element focused ultrasound transducer method for harmonic motion imaging.
The harmonic motion imaging (HMI) technique for simultaneous monitoring and generation of ultrasound therapy using two separate focused ultrasound transducer elements was previously demonstrated. In this study, a new HMI technique is described that images tissue displacement induced by a harmonic radiation force using a single focused-ultrasound element. A wave propagation simulation model firs...
متن کاملTissue harmonic synthetic aperture ultrasound imaging.
Synthetic aperture sequential beamforming (SASB) and tissue harmonic imaging (THI) are combined to improve the image quality of medical ultrasound imaging. The technique is evaluated in a comparative study against dynamic receive focusing (DRF). The objective is to investigate if SASB combined with THI improves the image quality compared to DRF-THI. The major benefit of SASB is a reduced bandwi...
متن کاملUltrasound Evaluation of Normal and Abnormal Fetuses: Comparison of Conventional, Tissue Harmonic, and Pulse-Inversion Harmonic Imaging Techniques
OBJECTIVE To determine the usefulness of tissue harmonic imaging (THI) and pulse-inversion harmonic imaging (PIHI) in the evaluation of normal and abnormal fetuses. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-one pregnant women who bore a total of 31 normal and ten abnormal fetuses underwent conventional ultrasonography (CUS), and then THI and PIHI. US images of six organ systems, namely the brain, spine, he...
متن کاملDual-Element Transducer with Phase-Inversion for Wide Depth of Field in High-Frequency Ultrasound Imaging
In high frequency ultrasound imaging (HFUI), the quality of focusing is deeply related to the length of the depth of field (DOF). In this paper, a phase-inversion technique implemented by a dual-element transducer is proposed to enlarge the DOF. The performance of the proposed method was numerically demonstrated by using the ultrasound simulation program called Field-II. A simulated dual-elemen...
متن کامل1.5-d Ultrasound Transducer Array Charlacterization
The objective of this work was twofold. The first was to investigate theoretically and cxperimentally the acoustical and electrical parameters of 1.5-D ultrasound transducer arrays for 3-D imaging applications. Modeling and simulations of arrays of various geomctry, center frequencies, and materials were performed, analyzed and optimized. The optimization criteria was the best achievable latera...
