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 ...
Integration of 2D CMUT arrays with front-end electronics for volumetric ultrasound imaging
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2008-02)
For three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound imaging, connecting elements of a two-dimensional (2D) transducer array to the imaging system's front-end electronics is a challenge because of the large number of array elements and ...
An integrated circuit with transmit beamforming flip-chip bonded to a 2-D CMUT array for 3-D ultrasound imaging
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2009-10)
State-of-the-art 3-D medical ultrasound imaging requires transmitting and receiving ultrasound using a 2-D array of ultrasound transducers with hundreds or thousands of elements. A tight combination of the transducer 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 ...

Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging has become an essential imaging modality for the effective diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases during the past decade enabled by innovative applications of piezoelectric ...
Forward-looking IVUS imaging using an annular-ring CMUT array
(IEEE, 2005)
A 64-element, 1.15mm diameter annular-ring CMUT array was characterized and used for forward-looking IVUS imaging tests. The array was manufactured using low temperature processes suitable for CMOS electronics integration ...
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 ...
