Harmonic imaging is used as default in many ultrasound imaging settings due to its advantages in contrast and resolution compared to fundamental imaging. However, the nonlinear harmonic generation process and higher imaging frequencies induce a stron

The lateral resolution of ultrasound images is determined by the size of the imaging aperture. Computational techniques have been proposed to improve resolution beyond the diffraction limit (Minimum Variance and Compressive Beamforming), but they lac

Ultrasound (US) image quality often suffers from random and speckle noise. Especially in the case of difficult patients, increased presence of random noise leads to compromised signal to noise ratio (SNR). The proposed technique removes random or spe

The Wiener postfilter [1] was introduced to ultrasound by Nilsen and Holm as a weighting mask designed to minimize the mean squared error (MSE) between the weighted noisy beamformed signal and the true noiseless signal [2]. Its application requires e

Left ventricular (LV) filling following atrial kick in late diastole generates LV myocardial stretch that propagates with a speed related to myocardial stiffness. Changes in myocardial stiffness have shown to be related to cardiac disease. Therefore,

Compressive Beamforming uses a beamforming matrix in conjunction with a sparsity prior to form high quality ultrasound images from a single or few insonifications. In some cases, due to poor SNR or model mismatch, it is desirable to use a larger numb

Background Acute ischemic stroke is often due to thromboembolism forming over ruptured atherosclerotic plaque in the carotid artery (CA). The presence of intraluminal CA thrombus is associated with a high risk of thromboembolic cerebral ischemic even

Plane wave imaging (PWI) and diverging wave imaging (DWI) can achieve high frame rate by coherently compounding beamsum data from broad transmit beams at different angles. However, many transmits are still needed as image quality degradation occurs w

One of the issues affecting motion compensation schemes in ultrasound imaging is sidelobe re-alignment, a cause of potentially significant image degradation. In this study, we propose a method to address this problem based on tracking the motion betw

Cardiac ultrasound imaging suffers from acoustic artefacts including diffraction limitation, aberration, reverberation, multipath, and electronic noise. In particular, multipath through the chest wall gives rise to a diffuse haze that obscures clinic
