Volumetric ultrasound imaging using 2-D CMUT arrays
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2003-11)
Recently, capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers (CMUTs) have emerged as a candidate to overcome the difficulties in the realization of 2-D arrays for real-time 3-D imaging. In this paper, we present the first ...
Forward-viewing CMUT arrays for medical Imaging
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2004-07)
This paper reports the design and testing of forward-viewing annular arrays fabricated using capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) technology. Recent research studies have shown that CMUTs have broad frequency ...
Coherent array imaging using phased subarrays. Part II: Simulations and experimental results
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2005-01)
The basic principles and theory of phased subarray (PSA) imaging imaging provides the flexibility of reducing I he number of front-end hardware channels between that of classical synthetic aperture (CSA) imaging-which uses ...
Integration of 2D CMUT arrays with front-end electronics for volumetric ultrasound imaging
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2008-02)
For three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound imaging, connecting elements of a two-dimensional (2D) transducer array to the imaging system's front-end electronics is a challenge because of the large number of array elements and ...
An integrated circuit with transmit beamforming and parallel receive channels for 3D ultrasound imaging: testing and characterization
(IEEE, 2007)
The cost and complexity of medical ultrasound imaging systems can be reduced by integrating the transducer array with an integrated circuit (IC). By incorporating some of the system's front-end electronics into an IC, bulky ...
An integrated circuit with transmit beamforming and parallel receive channels for real-time three-dimensional ultrasound imaging
(IEEE, 2006)
We present the design of an integrated circuit (IC) that will be flip-chip bonded to a 16 x 16-element CMUT array. The IC provides 16 receive channels which can be configured to receive along either of the array diagonals ...
Volumetric imaging using fan-beam scanning with reduced redundancy 2D arrays
(IEEE, 2006)
Phased array processing with a fully populated 2D array produces the best image quality but requires excessive number of active parallel front-end channels. Here we explore four array designs with reduced redundancy in ...
A miniature real-time volumetric ultrasound imaging system

Progress made in the development of a miniature real-time volumetric ultrasound imaging system is presented. This system is targeted for use in a 5-mm endoscopic channel and will provide real-time, 30-mm deep, volumetric ...
Integrated ultrasonic imaging systems based on CMUT arrays: Recent progress
(IEEE, 2004)
This paper describes the development of an ultrasonic imaging system based on a two-dimensional capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) array. The transducer array and front-end electronics are designed to ...
Phased subarray imaging for low-cost, wideband coherent array imaging
(IEEE, 2003)
The front-end hardware complexity of conventional full phased array (FPA) imaging is proportional to the number of array elements. Phased subarray (PSA) imaging has been proposed as a method of reducing the hardware ...
