Medical ultrasound has become a crucial part of modern society and continues to play a vital
role in the diagnosis and treatment of illnesses. Over the past decades, the development of …

As medical ultrasound imaging moves from conventional cart-based scanners to new form
factors such as imaging catheters, hand-held point-of-care scanners and ultrasound …

This paper presents a single chip reduced-wire active catheter application-specific
integrated circuit (ASIC), equipped with programmable transmit (Tx) beamforming and …

This brief reviews high-voltage pulsers for ultrasound imaging systems with a focus on
energy efficiency. Most ultrasound imaging systems have been developed with the aim of …

Trends of medical system move from a traditional in-person visit to virtual healthcare
increases demands on point-of-care devices. Because ultrasound (US) is non-invasive, the …

This article presents a high-frequency application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC)
transceiver for an ultrasound imaging system designed with a focus on low complexity. To …

This paper proposes a center frequency tracking scheme to optimize a pulse-echo response
of ultrasonic A-mode scanner. A pulse-echo response of A-mode scanner represents an …

This paper presents a high-voltage three-level pulse-generator circuit which reduces the
driving requirement of the input signals. This is achieved by cascoding making it possible to …

In this article, a compact integrated high‐voltage (HV) pulser is presented, which can serve
as an actuator in area‐limited medical ultrasound imaging applications. The proposed HV …
