Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method and an apparatus for estimating an ultrasonic speed by using the size of channel data are provided to minimize phase distortion by using a scan change and a beam concentration. CONSTITUTION: A conversion element unit(510) generates channel data according to each channel. A beam former(520) concentrates a beam by using a received ultrasonic speed. An intermediate processor(530) detects an envelope signal about a beam concentration signal. A back end processor(540) displays a log compression result on a screen. A channel data capturing unit(550) captures the channel data in an interest area.
Abstract:
본 발명은 요면 형태의 어레이를 이용한 초음파 영상 생성 방법에 관한 것으로서 적어도 하나 이상의 초음파 트랜스듀서로 이루어진 요면 형태의 어레이를 각막 위에 위치시키고, 요면 형태의 어레이를 통해 송수신된 초음파를 이용하여 초음파 영상을 생성한 다음, 생성된 초음파 영상을 디스플레이하는 데 있어서, 요면 형태의 어레이의 집속점이 유리체 상에 있는 것을 특징으로 하며, 요면 형태 어레이의 요면 형태가 각막의 형태와 일치하도록 함으로써, 초음파 굴절을 최소화하고, 초음파 에너지의 손실을 최소화하며, 그 결과 후안부를 효율적으로 초음파 영상화할 수 있다.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An apparatus and a method for HIFU therapy is provided to enable a user to confirm the focal point of a HIFU signal without damaging blood vessel and internal organs. CONSTITUTION: An apparatus for HIFU therapy comprises: an imaging transducer(121) which transmits ultrasonic wave for obtaining an image to a treatment position; a color image shaping unit(130) which receives a signal which is reflected from the treatment position an generates a color video signal; a treatment progress evaluating unit which evaluates treatment progress through the change of phase value distribution; a B-mode signal processing unit(140) which forms a B-mode video signal; and an image integration part(150) which generates an integration video signal.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method for producing an ultrasonic wave video using a concave array is provided to secure a desired image width by designing an ultrasound transducer in a concave form. CONSTITUTION: The array of a concave form which consists of one or more ultrasonic transducers is placed on a cornea. An ultrasonic image generated using the ultrasonic wave which is transmitted and received through the array of the concave form. A generated ultrasonic image is displayed. The focusing point of the array of the concave form is placed on a vitreous humor. The focusing point of the array of the concave form is placed on the vitreous body of an eyeball in a state where the array of the concave form is placed on an eyelid. The ultrasonic image belongs to the image of the posterior segment of the eyeball.
