Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Medical Imaging
  • Computational Physics

Background:

  • Lung Ultrasonography (LUS) is a rapid diagnostic tool for respiratory syndromes.
  • B-lines in LUS indicate fluid accumulation or thickening in lung tissues.
  • Mathematical models are crucial for predicting biological responses to signal parameters.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a Finite-Element numerical model for simulating radio frequency ultrasonic waves in normal and infiltrated lung structures.
  • To utilize a randomized inhomogeneous data method for tissue medium representation.
  • To implement Acoustic Pressure and Time-Explicit models based on the discontinuous Galerkin method (dG) in COMSOL®.

Main Methods:

  • A Finite-Element numerical model was developed using COMSOL®.
  • Randomized inhomogeneous data represented the lung tissue medium.
  • Radio frequency (RF) signals were processed using MATLAB® to generate A-lines and B-lines.

Main Results:

  • The simulation successfully generated horizontal A-lines and vertical B-lines.
  • The simulated B-lines showed reasonable similarity to real-world LUS images.
  • The use of inhomogeneous materials effectively simulated scattering responses.

Conclusions:

  • The developed numerical model accurately simulates lung infiltration effects on LUS images.
  • The model's ability to mimic scattering responses validates its use of inhomogeneous materials.
  • This tool is valuable for studying how lung infiltration characteristics influence LUS imaging.
