Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Acoustics
  • Signal Processing

Background:

  • Phased-array imaging systems, particularly in clinical ultrasound, are susceptible to image distortion.
  • Near-field velocity inhomogeneities can cause significant phase aberrations, degrading image quality.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a novel phase-aberration correction method for phased-array imaging.
  • To assess the effectiveness of the correction method in mitigating near-field aberrations in ultrasound simulations.

Main Methods:

  • A physical model using grooved room-temperature vulcanizing plates was developed to simulate near-field aberrations.
  • An iterative aberration correction algorithm utilizing cross-correlation measures between neighboring array elements was implemented.
  • The algorithm processed signals reflected from diffuse scatterers to estimate and correct aberrations.

Main Results:

  • Grooved plates induced substantial image distortion, as anticipated.
  • The iterative cross-correlation-based correction procedure effectively reduced aberration effects.
  • Corrected images closely resembled those obtained without any simulated aberrations.

Conclusions:

  • The developed phase-aberration correction method is practical for medical ultrasound imaging.
  • This approach shows potential for application in all coherent imaging systems using sampled apertures.
