Ultrasonography

6.4K
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...

Aliasing

263
Accurate signal sampling and reconstruction are crucial in various signal-processing applications. A time-domain signal's spectrum can be revealed using its Fourier transform. When this signal is sampled at a specific frequency, it results in multiple scaled replicas of the original spectrum in the frequency domain. The spacing of these replicas is determined by the sampling frequency.
If the sampling frequency is below the Nyquist rate, these replicas overlap, preventing the original...

Upsampling01:22

Upsampling

337
Managing signal sampling rates is essential in digital signal processing to maintain signal integrity. A decimated signal, characterized by a reduced frequency range due to its lower sampling rate, can be upsampled by inserting zeros between each sample. This upsampling process expands the original spectrum and introduces repeated spectral replicas at intervals dictated by the new Nyquist frequency. To refine this zero-inserted sequence, it is passed through a lowpass filter with a cutoff...

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Ultrasound Technology
    • Signal Processing

    Background:

    • High-frequency ultrasound (HFUS) imaging demands computationally intensive beamformers due to high sampling rates.
    • Existing beamforming methods face challenges in balancing computational complexity and image resolution for HFUS.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce an efficient HFUS beamformer utilizing sub-Nyquist (bandpass) sampling.
    • To reduce computational complexity in HFUS imaging while maintaining spatial resolution.

    Main Methods:

    • Employed bandpass sampling (4/3fc) and postfiltering-based interpolation for radio frequency data.
    • Utilized a polyphase structure for interpolation to decrease computational burden and preserve delay resolution.
    • Compared the proposed beamformer (4/3fc sampling, sixfold interpolation) with a conventional method (4fc sampling, fourfold interpolation).

    Main Results:

    • Simulations, in vitro, and in vivo experiments demonstrated comparable axial resolution (-6-dB beam widths) between the proposed and conventional methods.
    • The proposed method achieved similar image quality in in vivo studies on a murine breast cancer model.
    • Quantitative evaluation showed minimal loss in spatial resolution and contrast-to-noise ratio.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed HFUS beamformer based on bandpass sampling effectively reduces computational complexity.
    • This approach minimizes the loss of spatial resolution, making it suitable for advanced HFUS applications.
    • The method offers a practical solution for computationally demanding HFUS imaging systems.
