A lumped circuit model for the radiation impedance of a 2D CMUT array element
(IEEE, 2005)
Elements of a 2D array used for 3D acoustic imaging have dimensions smaller than half of the acoustic wavelength due to the Nyquist criteria for spatial sampling. Therefore, analyses involving circuit models for the array ...
Annular CMUT arrays for side looking intravascular ultrasound imaging
(IEEE, 2007)
Although side looking intravascular ultrasound (SL-IVUS) imaging systems using single element piezoelectric transducers set the resolution standard in the assessment of the extent of coronary artery disease, improvements ...
An endoscopie imaging system based on a two-dimensional CMUT array: real-time imaging results
(IEEE, 2005)
Real-time catheter-based ultrasound imaging tools are needed for diagnosis and image-guided procedures. The continued development of these tools is partially limited by the difficulty of fabricating two-dimensional array ...
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 ...
Subarray delta-sigma beamforming for ultrasonic imaging
(IEEE, 2002)
We present a beamforming architecture based on subarray processing with non-uniform oversampling 1-bit delta-sigma (??) modulation. The subarray processing combines conventional phased array and synthetic aperture approaches ...
Forward-looking IVUS imaging using an annular-ring CMUT array
(IEEE, 2005)
A 64-element, 1.15mm diameter annular-ring CMUT array was characterized and used for forward-looking IVUS imaging tests. The array was manufactured using low temperature processes suitable for CMOS electronics integration ...
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 ...
Design of a front-end integrated circuit for 3D acoustic imaging using 2D CMUT arrays
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2005-12)
Integration of front-end electronics with 2D capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) arrays has been a challenging issue due to the small element size and large channel count. We present design and verification ...
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 ...
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 ...
