    Abstract: Described herein are arrays of piezoelectric ultrasound elements. The piezoelectric ultrasound elements may be arranged in a checkerboard pattern. The piezoelectric ultrasound elements in one column may be shifted along the vertical dimension of the array with respect to piezoelectric ultrasound elements in an adjacent column. A piezoelectric ultrasound element in one column may be coupled to a different circuit than all other piezoelectric ultrasound elements in the column. The circuit may be, for example, an analog-to-digital converter or a circuit configured to transmit ultrasound signals from the array. Each piezoelectric ultrasound element in a column may be configured so that it can operate at a different frequency from each of the other piezoelectric ultrasound elements in the column. There array may include at least 1,000 piezoelectric ultrasound elements. The array may be monolithically integrated with a substrate comprising different circuits for each piezoelectric ultrasound element in the array.

    Abstract: Aspects of the technology described herein relate to techniques for calculating, during imaging, a quality of a sequence of images collected during the imaging. Calculating the quality of the sequence of images may include calculating a probability that a medical professional would use a given image for clinical evaluation and a confidence that an automated analysis segmentation performed on the given image is correct. Techniques described herein also include receiving a trigger to perform an automatic measurement on a sequence of images, calculating a quality of the sequence of images, determining whether the quality of the sequence of images exceeds a threshold quality, and performing the automatic measurement on the sequence of images based on determining that the quality of the sequence of images exceeds the threshold quality.

    Abstract: Aspects of the technology described herein relate to an ultrasound device including a first die that includes an ultrasonic transducer, a first application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) that is bonded to the first die and includes a pulser, and a second ASIC in communication with the second ASIC that includes integrated digital receive circuitry. In some embodiments, the first ASIC may be bonded to the second ASIC and the second ASIC may include analog processing circuitry and an analog-to-digital converter. In such embodiments, the second ASIC may include a through-silicon via (TSV) facilitating communication between the first ASIC and the second ASIC. In some embodiments, SERDES circuitry facilitates communication between the first ASIC and the second ASIC and the first ASIC includes analog processing circuitry and an analog-to-digital converter. In some embodiments, the technology node of the first ASIC is different from the technology node of the second ASIC.
