Deconvolution01:20

Deconvolution

441
Deconvolution, also known as inverse filtering, is the process of extracting the impulse response from known input and output signals. This technique is vital in scenarios where the system's characteristics are unknown, and they must be inferred from the observable signals.
Deconvolution involves several mathematical techniques to derive the impulse response. One common approach is polynomial division. In this method, the input and output sequences are treated as coefficients of...

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...

Convolution Properties II01:17

Convolution Properties II

479
The important convolution properties include width, area, differentiation, and integration properties.
The width property indicates that if the durations of input signals are T1 and T2, then the width of the output response equals the sum of both durations, irrespective of the shapes of the two functions. For instance, convolving two rectangular pulses with durations of 2 seconds and 1 second results in a function with a width of 3 seconds.
The area property asserts that the area under the...

Convergence of Fourier Series01:21

Convergence of Fourier Series

302
The Fourier series is a powerful mathematical tool for representing periodic signals as an infinite sum of complex exponentials. In practice, this infinite series is truncated to a finite number of terms, yielding a partial sum. This truncation makes the approximation of the signal feasible but introduces certain challenges, particularly near discontinuities, known as the Gibbs phenomenon.
The Gibbs phenomenon refers to the persistent oscillations and overshoots that occur near discontinuities...

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Ultrasound Technology
    • Signal Processing

    Background:

    • Ultrasound (US) image restoration typically uses deconvolution to correct for the point spread function (PSF).
    • Existing methods often assume linear wave propagation, estimating tissue reflectivity function (TRF) from fundamental US images.
    • Nonlinear tissue behavior and contrast agents generate harmonic images, which are often ignored.

    • To enhance image quality by utilizing both fundamental and harmonic US signals.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed a TRF restoration method considering both fundamental and harmonic RF signals.
    • Formulated TRF estimation as a cost function minimization problem.
    • Incorporated a sparsity-based regularization and accounted for harmonic echo attenuation with depth.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed method effectively restores TRF by integrating nonlinear ultrasound wave interactions.
    • Demonstrated improved performance using synthetic data and in vivo ultrasound images.
    • Outperformed existing restoration techniques in comparative analyses.
