    Abstract: An imaging system and method provides for the automatic leveling of a hologram detector system. A detector system must be precisely oriented in a proper predetermined orientation. The present invention senses the orientation of a plate to which the detector system is mounted and adjusts driver motors to maintain the detector system at a desired predetermined orientation. In an exemplary embodiment, orientation sensors form a feedback loop to a servo controller to control the position of the motors and thus maintain the detector system at the predetermined orientation. In another aspect of the invention, the patient table may be repositioned with respect to the imaging system. The patient is positioned on a table and imaging performed. If an object of interest is detected, the patient table may be independently repositioned in three orthogonal directions such that the object of interest coincides with an axis of rotation of the patient table. In this manner, the object of interest stays within a predetermined focal plane as the patient is rotated such that the object may be viewed from various angles.

    Abstract: A tissue biopsy device uses ultrasonic imaging to guide the biopsy needle. An ultrasonic imaging device comprises three acoustically coupled chambers with an ultrasound transducer in a first chamber, at least a portion of an ultrasound detector in the second chamber and the portion of patient anatomy to be imaged placed in the third chamber, which is intermediate the first and second chambers. The three chambers are filled with an acoustically transmissive liquid. When a structure, such as a lesion, has been located, the imaging may be used to determine the precise location of the lesion in three dimensions. The ultrasonically transmissive fluid is drained from the central third chamber with ultrasonic coupling occurring through the ultrasonically transmissive compression plates and the imaged patient anatomy. This permits real-time imaging of the patient anatomy during the biopsy process.

    Abstract: An acoustic hologram imaging system constructed from a machined housing having folded optics. Various surfaces of the housing are machined to provide a precise alignment to the optical members to be connected thereto, such as a mirror, a lens assembly, a light emitting laser diode, a camera, and the like. A three-part lens is described having different materials with different indexes of refraction in order to provide a desired focus of the light. In addition, an optical spatial filter is disclosed in which, according to various embodiments, all, some, or none of the light passing therethrough is attenuated for recording of the optical image of the hologram.

    Abstract: An acoustically generated image includes only selected acoustical components. When an original acoustic signal interacts with an object, the resultant acoustic signal comprises a diffracted component and an undiffracted component. The acoustical images of the present invention are generated with either the diffracted component only or the undiffracted component only. In an alternative embodiment, the acoustically generated image may comprise selected frequency component(s) from the diffracted component of the acoustic signal.

    Abstract: There is disclosed an improved ultrasonic hologram or other ultrasonic imaging process that accurately forms phase and amplitude information of the hologram in a manner that renders the unit relatively insensitive to environment vibrations, and provides long maintenance free functioning lifetime. Specifically, there is disclosed an improved ultrasonic hologram detector component that forms an ultrasonic hologram on the surface of a detection deformable detector material, resulting from the deformation of the surface. The surface deformation is due to the reflection of an ultrasound (ultrasonic) energy profile of the combination of an nullobject wavenull that passes through an object and that of a nullreference wavenull that is directed to the surface at an off axis angle from the nullobject wavenull.
