In ultrasound (US) imaging, delay and sum (DAS) is the most common beamformer, but it
leads to low-quality images. Delay multiply and sum (DMAS) was introduced to address this …

A key step in ultrasound image formation is digital beamforming of signals sampled by
several transducer elements placed upon an array. High-resolution digital beamforming …

Objective: In this paper, we focus on the carrying out and validation of minimally invasive
three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound (US) imaging of the auditory system, which is based on a …

Real-time 3-D ultrasound (US) provides a complete visualization of inner body organs and
blood vasculature, crucial for diagnosis and treatment of diverse diseases. However, 3-D …

One of the main issues in the development of 2-D arrays is the high system complexity due
to the requirement for a large number of elements. The 2-D array systems suffer from high …

An implementation of volumetric beamforming for row-column addressed arrays (RCAs) is
proposed, with optimizations for Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). It is hypothesized that …

Hand-held ultrasound devices have been widely used in the field of healthcare and power-
efficient, real-time imaging is essential. This work presents the world's first ultrasound …

Abstract Freehand three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound imaging usually uses a moving
elevation focused one-dimensional (1D) transducer to construct a series of B-mode slice …

Three-dimensional (3-D) ultrasound imaging is a promising modality for many medical
applications. Unfortunately, it generates voluminous data in the front end, making it …

In this paper, a new computer-assisted ultrasound probe placement system is introduced to
guide paramedics and first responders to conduct abdominal ultrasound imaging for …
