Integration of Vibro-Acoustography Imaging Modality with the Traditional Mammography
Vibro-acoustography (VA) is a new imaging modality that has been applied to both medical and industrial imaging. Integrating unique diagnostic information of VA with other medical imaging is one of our research interests. In this work, we establish correspondence between the VA images and traditional X-ray mammogram by adopting a flexible control-point selection technique for image registration...
متن کاملBone Imaging Using Tone-Burst Vibro-acoustography and Pulse-Echo Ultrasound: A Qualitative Comparative Study
This paper presents a comparative study between tone-burst (TB) vibro-acoustography (VA) and pulseecho ultrasound imaging on bone tissue. Vibroacoustography is an innovative technique that uses the dynamic (oscillatory) radiation force of ultrasound to remotely vibrate an object or a part of it. In response to this force, an acoustic signal is emitted which is related to the object’s mechanical...
متن کاملMedical imaging using capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer arrays.
We are investigating the use of capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers (cMUT's) for use in medical imaging. We propose an ultrasound probe architecture designed to provide volumetric ultrasound imaging from within an endoscope channel. A complete automated experimental system has been implemented for testing the imaging performance of cMUT arrays. This PC-based system includes custom-d...
متن کاملTheory of true-velocity duplex imaging using a single transducer
In this paper we study the B-mode/Doppler duplex imaging problem. We begin by looking at the problem of determining the true velocity vector only. We develop a model for the power spectrum of a signal reeected by a line of point scatterers with a Poisson distribution. We show that with circularly symmetric apertures it is possible to use the expression of that power spectrum to determine the tr...
متن کاملQuantitative Measurements in Vibro-acoustography
. Vibro-acoustography (VA) is an acoustic image modality based on the response of tissue under excitation of two ultrasound beams with different-frequencies. The aim of this paper is to provide a quantitative analysis with experimental measurements of the difference-frequency (DF) pressure generated in VA. This analysis considered the radiation force , the induced acoustic emission, and nonline...
