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

A change in elastin and collagen content is indicative of damage caused by hypertension, which changes the non-linear behavior of the vessel wall. This study was aimed at investigating the feasibility of monitoring the non-linear material behavior in

Carotid stenosis involves narrowing of the lumen in the carotid artery potentially leading to a stroke, which is the third leading cause of death in the United States. Several recent investigations have found that plaque structure and composition may

Pulse wave imaging (PWI) is an ultrasound imaging modality that estimates the wall stiffness of an imaged arterial segment by tracking the pulse wave propagation. The aim of the present study is to integrate PWI with vector flow imaging, enabling sim

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

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

Pulse wave imaging (PWI) is a non-invasive, ultrasound-based technique, which provides information on arterial wall stiffness by estimating the pulse wave velocity (PWV) along an imaged arterial wall segment. The aims of the present study were to: (1

Accurate arterial stiffness measurement would improve diagnosis and monitoring for many diseases. Atherosclerotic plaques and aneurysms are expected to involve focal changes in vessel wall properties; therefore, a method to image the stiffness variat
