Imaging Studies II: Ultrasonography

IntroductionUltrasonography, or renal ultrasound, is a noninvasive medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and surrounding tissues.Indications for Urinary System UltrasonographyUrinary system ultrasonography is indicated in various clinical scenarios, such as:Kidney Stones (Urolithiasis): To detect and monitor the size and presence of kidney or urinary tract stones.Hydronephrosis: To assess the dilation of the renal pelvis and...

Ultrasonography

Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
During an ultrasonography procedure, a handheld device called a...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Ultrasound Technology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Commercial ultrasound machines historically limited access to raw ultrasound data.
  • This lack of access hindered the development and evaluation of new ultrasound algorithms and applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a software-based ultrasound research interface for acquiring raw ultrasound data.
  • To integrate this interface into a commercial ultrasound machine (Hitachi HiVision 5500).

Main Methods:

  • Designed a software module as a research interface on the ultrasound back-end.
  • Implemented real-time lossless data compression to maximize raw data acquisition within memory constraints.

Main Results:

  • The interface successfully acquired raw ultrasound data in conventional modes (B, M, color flow, spectral Doppler, duplex, triplex).
  • Real-time lossless compression increased data spooling by approximately 2.3 times, allowing over 6 seconds of data acquisition.
  • The interface did not decrease frame rate or affect clinical usability.

Conclusions:

  • The developed interface facilitates rapid testing and clinical evaluation of new ultrasound algorithms and applications.
  • This approach can be deployed on existing machines and upgraded, with potential applicability to other ultrasound systems.
