Single-FPGA complete 3D and 2D medical ultrasound imager

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Giovanni De Micheli, Federico Angiolini, Marcel Arditi, Damien Doy, Aya Mohamed Naguib Ahmed Ibrahim

3D ultrasound (US) acquisition acquires volumetric images, thus alleviating a classical US imaging bottleneck that requires a highly-trained sonographer to operate the US probe. However, this opportunity has not been explored in practice, since 3D US machi ...
