چکیده

We consider the ultrasound imaging problem governed by a nonlinear wave equation of Westervelt type with variable speed. show that coefficient nonlinearity can be recovered uniquely from knowledge Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. Our proof is based on second order linearization and use Gaussian beam solutions to reduce inversion weighted geodesic ray transform. propose an algorithm report results numerical implementation solve in transmission setting frequency domain.

Simulation of nonlinear Westervelt equation for the investigation of acoustic streaming and nonlinear propagation effects.

This study investigates the influence of blood flow on temperature distribution during high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation of liver tumors. A three-dimensional acoustic-thermal-hydrodynamic coupling model is developed to compute the temperature field in the hepatic cancerous region. The model is based on the nonlinear Westervelt equation, bioheat equations for the perfused tissue ...

Ultrasound Simulation on the Cell Broadband Engine Using the Westervelt Equation

The simulation of realistic medical ultrasound imaging is a computationally intensive task. Although this task may be divided and parallelized, temporal and spatial dependencies make memory bandwidth a bottleneck on performance. In this paper, we report on our implementation of an ultrasound simulator on the Cell Broadband Engine using the Westervelt equation. Our approach divides the simulatio...

Nonlinear extended wave-equation imaging by image-domain seismic interferometry

Wave-equation, finite-frequency imaging and inversion still faces considerable challenges in addressing the inversion of highly complex velocity models as well as in dealing with nonlinear imaging (e.g., migration of multiples, amplitudepreserving migration). Extended images (EI’s), as we present here, are particularly important for designing image-domain objective functions aimed at addressing...
