A Weighted Non-Linear Beamformer for Synthetic Aperture Ultrasound Imaging
Anudeep Vayyeti,Arun K. Thittai +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a weighted nonlinear beamforming method called Filtered Delay Weighted Multiply and Sum (F-DwMAS) was proposed for Synthetic Transmit Aperture (STA) technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Importance of Axial Compression Verification to Correct Interpretation of Axial-Shear Strain Elastograms in Breast Lesions
TL;DR: The importance of accounting for the type of deformation applied to a target tissue for the correct interpretation of the resulting ASSEs is demonstrated, and it is suggested that under freehand conditions, frames have to be checked for the presence of undesirable deformations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel spatio-temporal non-linear beamformers for sparse synthetic aperture ultrasound imaging.
Anudeep Vayyeti,Arun K. Thittai +1 more
TL;DR: In this article , a sparse-transmit scheme (with only 8 transmits) on Synthetic Transmit Aperture technique (sparse STA) was chosen to evaluate the beamformers ability to generate the high-resolution Ultrasound image.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Design of a low cost ultrasound system using diverging beams and synthetic aperture approach: Preliminary study
Lokesh B,Arun K. Thittai +1 more
TL;DR: Results show that the proposed method provides better Lateral Resolution (LR) to that obtained when conventional focused linear array technique is used and is shown to improve further when sign coherence factor weighting is incorporated during beamforming.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A Novel Spatio-Temporal DMAS (ST-DMAS) Beamforming for Sparse Synthetic Aperture Ultrasound Imaging: Initial Results
Anudeep Vayyeti,Arun K. Thittai +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a modified nonlinear beamforming method, named as, Spatio-Temporal Delay Multiply and Sum (ST-DMAS), was investigated on a sparse-transmit Synthetic Transmit Aperture technique (sparse-STA) that used just 8 transmits to form the final ultrasound image.
