Miniature High-Frequency Epicardial Transducer
Background Intraoperative epicardial coronary Doppler ultrasound has the potential to provide anatomic and functional information. This technique has been hindered by the large size of standard transducers, but a miniature transducer is available that may fulfill the potential of coronary ultrasound. Methods and Results Twenty consecutive patients who were undergoing coronary artery bypass graf...
متن کاملDesign of a Test System to Characterize Very High-Frequency Ultrasound Transducer Arrays
A flexible test system is described that has the capability to characterize very high frequency ultrasound transducer arrays up to 128 elements. The system has the capability of testing single element transducers as well as groups of array elements. The R.F. front end electronics consists of pulser circuit, preamp and time gain compensation circuit. The pulser circuit is a high voltage, high sp...
متن کاملExperimental and numerical evaluation of electromagnetic acoustic transducer performance on steel materials
Electromagnetic Acoustic Transducers (EMATs) are an attractive alternative to standard piezoelectric probes in a number of applications thanks to their contactless nature. EMATs do not require any couplant liquid and are able to generate a wide range of wave-modes; however these positive features are partly counterbalanced by a relatively low signal-to-noise ratio and by the dependence of EMAT ...
متن کاملPhotoacoustic Tomography Imaging of the Adult Zebrafish by Using Unfocused and Focused High-Frequency Ultrasound Transducers
The zebrafish model provides an essential platform for the study of human diseases or disorders due to the possession of about 87% homologous genes with human. However, it is still very challenging to noninvasively visualize the structure and function of adult zebrafish based on available optical imaging techniques. In this study, photoacoustic tomography (PAT) was utilized for high-resolution ...
متن کاملHigh Frequency Backscatter Measurements of Bovine Tissues with Unfocused and Focused Transducers
In order to improve resolution of ultrasonic imaging, high frequency scanners which are employed in the range 20 MHZ to 50 MHz are needed. As a result, it is critical to obtain data on ultrasonic scattering and attenuation in this frequency range. At these high frequencies, it is not feasible to make scattering measurements with unfocused transducers; therefore focused transducers are needed. U...
