Application of adaptive image processing technique to real-time spatial compound ultrasound imaging improves image quality.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES To assess the impact of adaptive filter postprocessing on quality of ultrasound images. METHODS Ultrasound images acquired with real-time spatial compound imaging (SonoCT imaging) were subsequently processed with an adaptive real time algorithm (XRES imaging). Conventional and XRES-processed images from abdominal, pediatric or small parts ultrasound explorations were ...
متن کاملReal-time spatial compound ultrasound imaging of skin.
PURPOSE The aim of our study was to evaluate the potential of real-time spatial compound imaging (RTSCI) in dermatology. MATERIALS AND METHODS An ATL 5000 SonoCT equipped with compact linear 15-7 MHz and linear 12-5 MHz transducers was obtained for skin visualization in a group of dermatological patients with various skin diseases. RESULTS Thirty-four people participated: 21 patients with v...
متن کاملReal-time spatial compound imaging in breast ultrasound.
To determine the role of real-time spatial compound imaging in breast ultrasound (US), 38 patients with a total of 50 benign changes (fibroadenomas, cysts, lactiferous duct dilatation) underwent both conventional B-mode US and real-time spatial compound imaging under standardized examination settings. Subsequently, images were reviewed independently by three readers experienced in breast US and...
متن کاملReal-Time Image Processing
For thousands of years engineers have dreamed of building machines with vision capabilities that match their own. However most image processing algorithms are computationally intensive making real-time implementation di cult, expensive and not usually possible with microprocessor based hardware. In this project a computationally intensive image-processing algorithm is implemented, analysed, and...
متن کاملMotion Compensation Improves Medical Ultrasound Image Quality
Internal noise degrades the quality of a medical ultrasound imaging and thus, reduces its usefulness as a diagnostic tool. We study the effect of fusing multiple ultrasound pings on improving the quality of the ultrasound image. This approach is limited by the relative motion between the sensor array and internal organs, a problem which reduces the effect of the fusion. We present a robust moti...
