Simulated annealing based optimization of dual-ring arrays for forward-looking IVUS and ICE imaging
(2010)
Forward-Looking (FL) catheter based imaging systems are highly desirable for guiding interventions in intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) applications. One of the main challenges in the ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
An endoscopie imaging system based on a two-dimensional CMUT array: real-time imaging results
(IEEE, 2005)
Real-time catheter-based ultrasound imaging tools are needed for diagnosis and image-guided procedures. The continued development of these tools is partially limited by the difficulty of fabricating two-dimensional array ...
Micromachined capacitive transducer arrays for intravascular ultrasound
(SPIE, 2005)
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 ...
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 ...
An integrated circuit with transmit beamforming and parallel receive channels for real-time three-dimensional ultrasound imaging
(IEEE, 2006)
We present the design of an integrated circuit (IC) that will be flip-chip bonded to a 16 x 16-element CMUT array. The IC provides 16 receive channels which can be configured to receive along either of the array diagonals ...
Volumetric imaging using fan-beam scanning with reduced redundancy 2D arrays
(IEEE, 2006)
Phased array processing with a fully populated 2D array produces the best image quality but requires excessive number of active parallel front-end channels. Here we explore four array designs with reduced redundancy in ...
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 ...
