Abstract

To accurately investigate the state of the carotid artery by the local haemodynamics and motion of the plaque using ultrasound, high-frame rate volumetric imaging is necessary. We have specifically designed a matrix array for this purpose. In this proceeding we will focus on imaging a volumetric flow profile using this matrix. For this purpose, we extend a fast frequency domain vector flow imaging method to 3D and perform measurements on a flow phantom. The results indicate that it is feasible to estimate 3D velocity vectors on a 3D grid using our matrix transducer and the proposed algorithm.
