An Analog beamformer for integrated high-frequency medical ultrasound imaging
(IEEE, 2011)
We designed and fabricated a dynamic receive beamforming integrated circuit (IC) in 0.35-mu m CMOS technology. This beamformer is suitable for integration with an ultrasound annular array for high-frequency (30-50 MHz) ...
Minimally redundant 2-D array designs for 3-D medical ultrasound imaging
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2009-07)
In real-time ultrasonic 3-D imaging, in addition to difficulties in fabricating and interconnecting 2-D transducer arrays with hundreds of elements, there are also challenges in acquiring and processing data from a large ...
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 ...
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 ...
Annular-ring CMUT arrays for forward-looking IVUS: Transducer characterization and imaging
(IEEE, 2006-02)
In this study, a 64-element, 1.15-mm diameter annular-ring capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) array was characterized and used for forward-looking intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging tests. The array ...
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 ...
