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 ...
Dual electrode capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer array for 1-D intracardiac echocardiography (ICE)
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2007)
We designed and fabricated a 64 element 1-D linear dual electrode Capacitive Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducer (CMUT) array operating at 9.5 MHz for Intracardiac Echocardiography (ICE). The dual electrode CMUT structure ...

Tıbbi ultrasonik görüntüleme sistemleri, genel olarak bir çevirici elemanı ve akustik işaretin üretilip algılanmasından sorumlu elektronik oluşmaktadır. Tek boyutlu dönüştürücü dizileriyle, incelenmekte olan ortamın iki ...
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 ...
Volumetric imaging using 2D capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer arrays (CMUTs): Initial results
(IEEE, 2002)
This paper presents the first volumetric images obtained using a 2D CMUT array with through-wafer via interconnects. An 8×16-element portion of a 32×64-element array flip-chip bonded onto a glass fanout chip was used in ...
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 ...
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 ...
