Forward-looking IVUS imaging using a dual-annular ring CMUT array: Experimental results
(IEEE, 2007)
This paper presents the experimental results on forward-looking Intravascular ultrasound (FL-IVUS) using dual-annular-ring CMUT arrays. The array has a diameter of 1mm including bondpads which consists of separate, concentric ...
An analog integrated circuit beamformer for high-frequency medical ultrasound imaging
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2012-10)
We designed and fabricated a dynamic receive beamformer integrated circuit (IC) in 0.35-mu m CMOS technology. This beamformer IC is suitable for integration with an annular array transducer for high-frequency (30-50 MHz) ...
Monolithic CMUT-on-CMOS integration for intravascular ultrasound applications
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2011-12)
One of the most important promises of capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) technology is integration with electronics. This approach is required to minimize the parasitic capacitances in the receive mode, ...
A tunable analog delay element for high-frequency dynamic beamforming
(IEEE, 2009)
Implementing beamforming for high frequency arrays is challenging because of the accurate delay requirements at high frequencies. High frequency digital beamforming is not suitable for catheter based applications as a large ...
Front-end CMOS electronics for monolithic integration with CMUT arrays: Circuit design and initial experimental results
(2008)
This paper discusses design of CMOS-ASICs for monolithic integration of CMUT arrays by post-CMOS fabrication. We describe design strategies for monolithic integration and demonstrate the advantages of CMUT-on-CMOS approach. ...
Evaluation of CMUT annular arrays for side-looking IVUS
(IEEE, 2009)
Side-looking (SL) IVUS probes are extensively used for management of cardiovascular diseases. Currently SL-IVUS imaging probes use either a single rotating transducer element or solid-state arrays. Probes with single ...
An annular CMUT array beamforming system for high-frequency side looking IVUS imaging
(2010)
A CMUT annular array system for Side-Looking Intravascular Ultrasound (SL-IVUS) with fixed transmit and dynamic receive focusing capabilities has been developed. The system was experimentally characterized and validated ...
CMUT-based volumetric ultrasonic imaging array design for forward looking ICE and IVUS applications
(SPIE-Int Soc Optical Engineering, 2013)
Designing a mechanically flexible catheter based volumetric ultrasonic imaging device for intravascular and intracardiac imaging is challenging due to small transducer area and limited number of cables. With a few parallel ...
