Signal processing for ultrasound imaging |
| abstract |
The visibility of features in ultrasound images that include at least two types of tissue can be improved by processing the images using a variety of algorithms. In one such algorithm, the ratio of power in a first spatial frequency band to power in a second spatial frequency band is computed for a plurality of samples of a received ultrasound return signal that are associated with a given pixel. In another such algorithm, the ratio of power in a first spatial frequency band to total power is computed. With both algorithms, the computed ratio is then mapped to a gain for the given pixel, the raw intensity of the given pixel is modified in accordance with the gain, and the pixel is displayed with the modified intensity. |
