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, ...
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) ...
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) ...
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 ...
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 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 ...
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. ...
Experimental study of dual-ring CMUT array optimization for forward-looking IVUS
(IEEE, 2011)
Forward-looking (FL) catheters have guiding and volumetric imaging capacities which are highly desirable for IVUS applications. Large channel and firing counts have to be reduced to enable 3-D real-time imaging and simplify ...
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 ...
Solid-state SL-IVUS arrays based on non-uniform aperture sampling
(IEEE, 2010)
We propose new reconfigurable ring and cylindrical array designs using non-uniform (Fresnel) aperture sampling with identical differential delays between adjacent elements which reduces the beamformer complexity. For ...
