High-frame-rate volumetric ultrasound imaging using dedicated arrays and deep learning

High-frame-rate volumetric ultrasound imaging is highly desired to enable novel clinical ultrasound applications. However, realizing high-quality volumetric ultrasound imaging at a high frame rates (>500 Hz) is challenging. Keeping the cable count and data rate of the transducer device at a realistic level without sacrificing image quality to...

3-D contrast enhanced ultrasound imaging of an in vivo chicken embryo with a sparse array and deep learning based adaptive beamforming

3-D contrast enhanced ultrasound enables better visualization of inherently 3-D vascular geometries compared to an intersecting plane. Additionally, it would allow the application of motion correction techniques for all directions. Both contrast detection and motion correction work better on high-frame rate data. However high-frame rate 3-D...
