Abstract: An ultrasound imaging system includes acoustic elements configured to transmit ultrasound energy and receive associated echoes. The system further includes a processor circuit in communication with the acoustic elements. The processor circuit may be configured to receive data corresponding to a set of subframes based on the echoes. The set of subframes includes a first and second subframe. The processor circuit may be configured to coherently combine data corresponding to a first portion of the first subframe and data corresponding to a first portion of the second subframe, which may both include phase information. The processor circuit may be configured to generate an image based on the coherent combination of the first portion of the first subframe and the first portion of the second subframe and to output the generated image to a display in communication with the processor circuit.
