Ultrasonography01:17

Ultrasonography

7.1K
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...

    Area of Science:

    • Acoustics and Ultrasonics
    • Signal Processing
    • Robotics and Automation

    Background:

    • Traditional ultrasonic imaging systems often face limitations in real-time 3D localization, particularly in far-field applications.
    • Achieving grating lobe-free beamforming with low-cost transducers requires innovative array configurations and signal processing techniques.

    • Implemented custom transceiver electronics, a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) system-on-chip, and GPU-accelerated signal processing (CUDA, OpenGL).
    • Employed multiple transmit and receive methods, including hemispherical pulse (HP) transmission and dynamic transmit beamforming.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrated real-time 3D object localization with a horizontal and vertical field of view of ±80° and a range of 0.5-3 m at 29 frames/s.
    • Characterized imaging properties including axial and lateral resolution, field of view, and range of view in an anechoic chamber.
    • Provided a comparative analysis of HP and dynamic transmit beamforming methods for different localization scenarios.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed air-coupled ultrasonic imaging system offers robust 3D real-time localization capabilities with adaptable imaging parameters.
    • The system's design, incorporating waveguide-enhanced arrays and advanced signal processing, overcomes limitations of traditional ultrasonic systems.
    • This technology holds potential for various applications requiring precise object detection and tracking in diverse environments.
