摘要: A method of calibrating an ultrasound probe includes mounting an ultrasound probe onto a calibration system, transmitting an ultrasound test signal from an element of the probe through a test medium of the calibration system, and receiving the test signal on a matrix of hydrophones such that an element's position relative to other elements and other arrays within the same probe can be computed. Further, the system described herein is configured to detect the acoustic performance of elements of a probe and report the results to an end user or service provider.

摘要: A Multiple Aperture Ultrasound Imaging (MAUI) probe or transducer is uniquely capable of simultaneous imaging of a region of interest from separate apertures of ultrasound arrays. Some embodiments provide systems and methods for designing, building and using ultrasound probes having continuous arrays of ultrasound transducers which may have a substantially continuous concave curved shape in two or three dimensions (i.e. concave relative to an object to be imaged). Other embodiments herein provide systems and methods for designing, building and using ultrasound imaging probes having other unique configurations, such as adjustable probes and probes with variable configurations.

摘要: A shadow mask for depositing solder bumps includes additional dummy holes located adjacent holes corresponding to most of the perimeter chips of the wafer. The additional dummy provide more uniform plasma etching of contacts of the wafer, improve etching of contacts of perimeter chips, and lower contact resistance of contacts of perimeter chips. The extra holes also provide solder bumps outside the perimeter chips that can be used to support a second shadow mask for deposition of an additional material, such as tin, on the reflowed solder bumps for mounting the chips on a plastic substrate at low temperature. An improved mask to wafer alignment aid is formed from standard solder bumps. The improved alignment aid avoids damage to test probes and provides improved course alignment.
