Ultrasonography

8.4K
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...

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography

2.7K
Introduction:
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Optics
    • Acoustic Elastography
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Shear-wave optical coherence elastography (SW-OCE) offers high-resolution tissue elasticity mapping.
    • Current methods face limitations in imaging range and dealing with tissue heterogeneity.
    • Integrating advanced ultrasound techniques can enhance SW-OCE capabilities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To implement beam-steering ultrasound as a wave source for SW-OCE.
    • To extend the elastic imaging range of tissue samples.
    • To quantitatively assess tissue biomechanical properties with high resolution.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a linear phased array ultrasound transducer (LPAUT) for remote, programmable wave generation.
    • Employed phase-sensitive optical coherence tomography (OCT) for shear-wave detection.
    • Developed a directional filter to manage shear-wave propagation in heterogeneous tissues.
    • Applied spatial compounding of elasticity maps from acoustic radiation force impulses (ARFI).

    Main Results:

    • Successfully demonstrated the feasibility of the combined SW-OCE and beam-steering ultrasound approach.
    • Quantified the stiffness of tissue-mimicking phantoms (0.5% and 1% agarose).
    • Imaged the Young's modulus of retinal and choroidal tissues in porcine eyes ex vivo.

    Conclusions:

    • The integration of beam-steering ultrasound with SW-OCE significantly extends elastic imaging capabilities.
    • This technique allows for high-resolution, localized, and quantitative assessment of tissue biomechanics.
    • The approach holds promise for advancing combined medical ultrasound and SW-OCE applications.
