3 Ultrasound Systems Broad range of applications and price points 3
4 System Block Diagram Scan Converter Transducer Beamformer Detector Video Display System Controller User Interface 4
5 How did the imager get so small? Electronics & ASICs miniaturization CPUs & Software evolution Sensors with embedded beamforming 5
6 Ultrasound Probes 6
7 Transducer Array Structure Acoustic Matching Layers Acoustic Lens Element Isolation Cuts Ground Electrode Piezoceramic Signal Electrode Acoustic Absorber Ground Flex Signal Flex 7
8 How can you make a better image? Goals: Achieve uniform elevation resolution (slice thickness) over an extended range. Preserve lateral & axial image quality Constraints: Limited number of system channels Patient access (probe footprint) 8
9 Transducer Array Taxonomy Elevation 1D 1.25D 1.5D 1.75D 2D Aperture Fixed Discrete Dynamic Dynamic Dynamic Focus Static Static Dynamic, Symmetric Dynamic, No Symmetry Constraint Dynamic, Steerable 9
10 Elevation Beamforming 1D array relies on fixed lens for elevation focus. Good resolution at focus; poor in near & far field. Transducer Element Multi-row array with multiple focal zones maintains uniform resolution over much greater range. Lens Image Slice Thickness Lens Focus Depth of Field Depth of Field with Multi-Row Transducer and Multiple Focal Zones 10
11 Elevation Beam Profiles 1D 1.25D 1.5D 11
12 Aperture Design: Compromises Performance vs. Probe + System Cost 1D vs. 1.25D vs. 1.5D vs. 1.75D vs. 2D Application => Footprint, Frame rate,... Number & size of rows, elements Beam quality vs. intercostal or endo access Lens (single vs. multi-focus), Apodization Time delays for elevation beamforming 12
13 Single- vs. Multi-Row Arrays Single Row Multi- Row Phantom with 2 mm Spherical Cysts 13
14 2D Array Strategies Sparse arrays: use 10% - 25% of elements Active elements in probe = channels in system ( ) + Established probe technology Poor image quality (grating lobes, weak penetration) Dense arrays: use all elements Active elements in probe (2K 3K) >> channels in system + Good image quality Beamforming electronics in probe High voltage Transmit vs. low voltage Receive High density, low power: packaging, interconnect, cooling 14
15 Sub-Array Beamformer in Probe Power & Control Preamps Delays Sum To System Channel Transmit Digital or Analog? Connects a group of transducer elements to each system channel Low-power analog beamformer: Phase rotation or Delay lines Small delays only: static steering of small sub-aperture Dynamic focusing & full-aperture delays by system beamformer B. Savord & R. Solomon, Philips 2003 IEEE Ultrasonics Symposium 15 15
16 2D Array Strategies II Matrix arrays: Switches connect elements into linear or annular groups Reconfigure switches to change steering direction or change focus (esp. transmit focus) + System sees probe as 1D or annular array Need many small, high-voltage, low-loss switches tightly integrated with transducer elements To system channel 16
17 Probe Beamforming Leads to Handheld Systems Modular Beamformer in Probe Handle 2D Transducer Array (vs. human hair) 17
18 The Other Miniaturizaton: Intracardiac Arrays Lee et.al. IEEE Trans. UFFC 58, 1478, (2011) 18
