Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System I:Echocardiography

331
Cardiac imaging studies encompass a wide range of noninvasive and minimally invasive techniques designed to visualize the heart's structure and function in detail. One such technique is echocardiography, which uses high-frequency ultrasound waves to produce detailed images of the heart, known as echocardiograms.
Indications: Echocardiography is utilized to diagnose heart failure, valve disorders, and myocardial infarction. It also assesses cardiac structures' size, shape, and motion,...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System II:Types of Echocardiography

271
Echocardiography plays a role in assessing cardiac health and detecting heart conditions, with various types providing critical insights for diagnosis and treatment.
Types of Echocardiography
Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE)
TTE is the most common type of echocardiogram which involves placing a transducer on the patient's chest, emitting sound waves to create heart images. TTE is invaluable for evaluating the heart's size, structure, and motion, making it particularly useful for...

    Area of Science:

    • Medical imaging
    • Ultrasound technology
    • Cardiovascular diagnostics

    Background:

    • Cardiac ultrasound faces challenges in balancing spatial and temporal resolution.
    • Modern techniques like synthetic aperture (SA) sequences can introduce motion artifacts.
    • Retrospective encoding for conventional ultrasound sequences (REFoCUS) unifies processing but its motion sensitivity is unknown.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the motion sensitivity of REFoCUS.
    • To develop and evaluate a "mixed sequence" using REFoCUS for improved cardiac motion imaging.
    • To assess the potential of mixed sequences for high frame rate cardiac imaging.

    Main Methods:

    • Simulated REFoCUS motion sensitivity analysis with focused and broad transmit profiles.
    • Design of a mixed sequence combining plane wave (PW) and focused transmissions.
    • In vivo and simulation testing of the mixed sequence on cardiac and liver imaging.

    Main Results:

    • Focused transmissions demonstrated superior lateral and axial motion resolution compared to broad transmissions.
    • The mixed sequence effectively combined sparse PW and targeted focused transmissions.
    • Improved resolution of the anterior mitral valve leaflet (AML) at peak velocity was achieved.

    Conclusions:

    • Mixed sequences show significant potential for resolving cardiac motion.
    • This approach can achieve clinically relevant frame rates for cardiac ultrasound.
    • The REFoCUS method enables the development of advanced imaging sequences.
