Moving From 2D to 3D Ultrasound : The Ease of the Transition is in the User Interface

2016 25 Jan

3D ultrasound imaging has been used for several years especially in high-risk Obstetrics. Perinatologists and Maternal Fetal Medicine specialists were among the first to transition to 3D ultrasound and make it a part of their routine exams.  However, the use of 3D ultrasound in the Obstetric office environment has been slower to gain acceptance. The... Read more

V Flow : A Novel Visualization of Blood Flow

2016 21 Jan

IntroductionUltrasound color flow mapping (CFM) has been extensively used in clinical diagnosis. Velocity of blood flow is calculated through a leg-one auto-correlation [1] method using the beamformed and filtered receiving signals. The magnitude of velocity relative to the direction of ultrasound beam propagation can be obtained and thus is applicable... Read more

Automatic Detect Fetal Median Sagittal Plane Using Smart MSP

2016 20 Jan

1.1 BackgroundUltrasound is a standard way to evaluate fetal anatomies. For the examination of fetal brain, one of the most important anatomical views is median sagittal plane (MSP).This plane can provide unique information of intracranial structures such as corpus callosum (CC) and cerebellar vermis (CV). Several studies[1~6] have proved that median... Read more
