On Problem Formulation, Efficient Modeling and Deep Neural Networks for High-Quality Ultrasound Imaging

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Dimitris Perdios, Adrien Georges Jean Besson, Marcel Arditi, Adrien Besson, Florian Martinez, Manuel Vonlanthen

Recently, many pulse-echo ultrasound (US) imaging methods have relied on the transmission of unfocused wavefronts. Such a strategy allows for very high frame rates at the cost of a degraded image quality. In this work, we present a regularized inverse prob ...

Compressive Multiplexing of Ultrasound Signals

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Yves Wiaux, Dimitris Perdios, Adrien Georges Jean Besson, Marcel Arditi

High-quality 3D ultrasound (US) imaging requires dense matrix-array probes with thousands of elements and necessitates an unrealistic number of coaxial cables to connect such probes to back-end systems. To address this issue, many techniques have been deve ...

Deep Convolutional Neural Network for Ultrasound Image Enhancement

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Dimitris Perdios, Adrien Georges Jean Besson, Marcel Arditi, Adrien Besson, Florian Martinez, Manuel Vonlanthen

The problem of improving image quality in ultrafast ultrasound (US) imaging by means of regularized iterative algorithms has raised a vast interest in the US community. These approaches usually rely on standard image processing priors, such as wavelet spar ...

Towards Ultrasound Everywhere: A Portable 3D Digital Back-End Capable of Zone and Compound Imaging

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

Ultrasound imaging is a ubiquitous diagnostic technique, but does not fit the requirements of the telemedicine approach, because it relies on the real-time manipulation and image recognition skills of a trained expert, called sonographer. Sonographers are ...
