摘要： A method for tissue characterization by ultrasound wave attenuation measurements is provided that comprises: a) transmitting at least an ultrasound pulse in a target body; b) receiving ultrasound pulses reflected by the target body and transforming the reflected ultrasound pulses into RF reception signals; c) extracting an envelope of the received RF signals; d) carrying out a logarithmic compression of the extracted envelope and e) computing a propagation depth dependent attenuation coefficient of the tissues crossed by the ultrasound pulse in the target body as the slope of the line fitting the logarithmic compressed envelope data along the penetration depth of the ultrasound pulse in the target body. The disclosure relates also to an ultrasound system for carrying out the method.

摘要： A tracker-less method is provided for registering images acquired with different modalities for generating fusion images from registered images acquired with different modalities. The method acquires a sequence of ultrasound images by interlacing wide, high depth ultrasound scans to zoomed ultrasound scans; and registers image data obtained from the high-depth ultrasound scans with image data of the same anatomical region acquired with a different modality and determining registration data. The image data obtained from the high-depth ultrasound scan and/or the image data acquired with the different modality is not displayed to the user. Image data acquired by the zoomed ultrasound scan is registered with the zoomed image data obtained with the different modality by applying the registration data to the image data acquired by the zoomed ultrasound scans. Registered image data is combined with the zoomed image data obtained with the different modality and the combined or image data is displayed.

摘要： A method for automatically detecting of the probe which is selected for the use by the user without manual commands by the user and comprising monitoring the operational status of the probe by discriminating between probe not in use and probe in use by sensing at least the motion of the probe and by setting automatically a probe in an active status if a motion of the probe is sensed and setting the probe in an inactive status if the probe is stationary.

摘要： Performing retrospective dynamic transmit focusing beamforming for ultrasound signals by a) transmitting plural transmit beams, each transmit beam centered at a different position along array, having width or aperture encompassing plural laterally spaced line positions, each transmit beam width or aperture overlapping width or aperture of adjacent transmit beam or more laterally spaced transmit beams; b) receiving echo signals; c) processing echo signals to produce plural receive lines of echo signals at laterally spaced line positions within width or aperture of transmit beam; d) repeating steps b), (c) for additional transmit beams of plural transmitted transmit beams; e) equalizing phase shift variance among receive lines at common line position resulting from transmit beams of different transmit beam positions concurrently with steps c), d); f) combining echo signals of receive lines from different transmit beams spatially related to common line position to produce image data; g) produces an image using image data.
