Ultrasonography01:17

Ultrasonography

4.3K
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...

Computed Tomography

4.2K
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Acoustics
    • Biophysics

    Background:

    • Ultrasound is a key medical imaging tool, but thorax imaging is difficult due to lung-related signal interference.
    • Low-frequency ultrasound (10 kHz–750 kHz) shows promise for penetrating the thorax.
    • Ultrasound signal amplitude varies with respiration, while traveltime is stable.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To establish a relationship between ultrasound energy attenuation and thorax attenuation factor.
    • To develop a differential imaging method for reconstructing thorax attenuation variations during ventilation.
    • To validate the feasibility of low-frequency ultrasound for thorax imaging.

    Main Methods:

    • Derived the relationship between first-arrival signal energy attenuation and thorax attenuation factor.
    • Applied differential imaging principles to reconstruct attenuation variations.
    • Verified the algorithm using numerical simulations and human subject experiments.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrated reconstruction of thorax attenuation factor variations based on signal energy changes during ventilation.
    • Successfully identified apparent high-attenuation areas in both left and right thorax regions.
    • Confirmed the feasibility of the proposed low-frequency ultrasound imaging technique.

    Conclusions:

    • Low-frequency ultrasound enables differential imaging of thorax attenuation.
    • Respiration-induced ultrasound signal variations can be leveraged for imaging.
    • This technique offers a potential solution for challenging thorax imaging applications.
