Optimizing circular ring arrays for forward-looking IVUS imaging
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2011-12)
Forward-looking (FL) catheter-based imaging systems are highly desirable for guiding interventions in intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) applications. One of the main challenges of array-based FL-IVUS systems is the large ...
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 ...
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) ...
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 ...
Dual-annular-ring CMUT array for forward-looking IVUS imaging
(IEEE, 2006)
We investigate a dual-annular-ring CMUT array configuration for forward-looking intravascular ultrasound (FL-IVUS) imaging. The array consists of separate, concentric transmit and receive ring arrays built on the same ...
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 ...
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 ...
Co-array optimization of CMUT arrays for forward-looking IVUS
(IEEE, 2009-09)
The ring annular array structure is a preferred configuration for implementing Forward-Looking IVUS (FLIVUS) catheters as it allows for volumetric imaging as well as use of a guidewire at the center. CMUT technology is ...
