_Diagnostic Ultrasound Imaging_ provides a unified description of the
physical principles of ultrasound imaging, signal processing, systems
and measurements. This comprehensive reference is a core resource for
both graduate students and engineers in medical ultrasound research
and design. With continuing rapid technological development of
ultrasound in medical diagnosis, it is a critical subject for
biomedical engineers, clinical and healthcare engineers and
practitioners, medical physicists, and related professionals in the
fields of signal and image processing.
The book contains 17 new and updated chapters covering the
fundamentals and latest advances in the area, and includes four
appendices, 450 figures (60 available in color), and almost 1,500
references. In addition to the continual influx of readers entering
the field of ultrasound worldwide who need the broad grounding in the
core technologies of ultrasound, this book provides those already
working in these areas with clear and comprehensive expositions of
these key new topics as well as introductions to state-of-the-art
innovations in this field.
* Enables practicing engineers, students and clinical professionals
to understand the essential physics and signal processing techniques
behind modern imaging systems as well as introducing the latest
developments that will shape medical ultrasound in the future
* Suitable for both newcomers and experienced readers, the practical,
progressively organized applied approach is supported by hands-on
MATLAB® code and worked examples that enable readers to understand
the principles underlying diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound
* Covers the new important developments in the use of medical
ultrasound: elastography and high-intensity therapeutic ultrasound.
Many new developments are comprehensively reviewed and explained,
including aberration correction, acoustic measurements, acoustic
radiation force imaging, alternate imaging architectures, bioeffects:
diagnostic to therapeutic, Fourier transform imaging, multimode
imaging, plane wave compounding, research platforms, synthetic
aperture, vector Doppler, transient shear wave elastography, ultrafast
imaging and Doppler, functional ultrasound and viscoelastic models
