Sound speed estimation using automatic ultrasound image registration
A mismatch between the sound speed assumed for beamforming and scan conversion and the true sound speed in the tissue to be imaged can lead to significant defocusing and some geometric distortions in ultrasound images. A method is presented for estimating the average sound speed based on detection o...

description | A mismatch between the sound speed assumed for beamforming and scan conversion and the true sound speed in the tissue to be imaged can lead to significant defocusing and some geometric distortions in ultrasound images. A method is presented for estimating the average sound speed based on detection of these distortions using automatic registration of overlapping, electronically steered images. An acrylamide gel phantom containing vaporized dodecafluoropentane droplets as point targets was constructed to evaluate the technique. Good agreement (rms deviation |
