    • An ultrasound system comprises a front end subsystem and a back end subsystem. The back end subsystem processes data samples representative of the echo signals from the front end subsystem. The back end subsystem includes at least one microprocessor with registers that simultaneously store at least two data samples. The microprocessor performs parallel common arithmetic or logic instructions upon at least two ultrasound data samples in one register. The microprocessor may be configured to scan convert polar data samples to Cartesian pixel values. During scan conversion, one register simultaneously stores multiple polar data samples and another register simultaneously stores coefficients associated with the polar data samples. The microprocessor multiplies corresponding data samples and coefficients, and sums the product of the parallel multiplication operations in order to produce a Cartesian data sample associated with a pixel to be displayed on an image arranged in a Cartesian coordinate pattern. The microprocessor may be configured to perform parallel arithmetic instructions to carry out auto-correlation operations, such as during Color Doppler signal processing. To do so, the registers store simultaneously multiple data samples representative of echo signals received from the same physical point from several transmissions. The registers each store the same data samples except that the data samples are shifted in the registers with respect to one another. During the parallel common arithmetic instructions, the microprocessor multiplies the data samples within the first and second registers and sums the products of the multiplication operations as part of an autocorrelation operation. The microprocessor may be reconfigured to perform blending operations two-dimensional greyscale images (B-mode) and Color Doppler images for a region of interest.
    • 超声系统包括前端子系统和后端子系统。 后端子系统处理表示来自前端子系统的回波信号的数据样本。 后端子系统包括至少一个具有同时存储至少两个数据样本的寄存器的微处理器。 微处理器在一个寄存器中的至少两个超声数据样本上执行并行公共算术或逻辑指令。 微处理器可以被配置为扫描将极坐标数据样本转换成笛卡尔像素值。 在扫描转换期间,一个寄存器同时存储多个极数据样本,另一个寄存器同时存储与极数据样本相关联的系数。 微处理器将相应的数据样本和系数相乘,并且将并行乘法运算的乘积相加,以产生与要以笛卡尔坐标图形排列的图像上显示的像素相关联的笛卡尔数据样本。 微处理器可以被配置为执行并行算术指令以执行自相关操作,例如在彩色多普勒信号处理期间。 为了这样做,寄存器同时存储表示从多个传输从相同物理点接收的回波信号的多个数据样本。 寄存器各存储相同的数据样本,除了数据样本在寄存器中相对于彼此移位之外。 在并行公共算术指令期间,微处理器将第一和第二寄存器内的数据样本相乘,并将乘法运算的乘积相加,作为自相关运算的一部分。 微处理器可以被重新配置为对感兴趣的区域执行混合操作二维灰度图像(B模式)和彩色多普勒图像。

    • A method and apparatus for providing a virtual volumetric ultrasound phantom to construct an ultrasound training system from any ultrasound system (hereafter "the ultrasound training system").The ultrasound system and method retrieve and display previously stored ultrasound data to simulate an ultrasound scanning session. A real ultrasound system acquires an image of an ultrasound phantom. The ultrasound image comprises ultrasound echo data for an image/scan plane representing a cross-section or partial volume of the ultrasound phantom. The ultrasound image is analyzed to identify image attributes that are unique for each image/scan plane. A portion of the previously stored data that corresponds to the image attributes is retrieved and displayed. In one embodiment, actual position and orientation of the acquired image/scan plane with respect to a known structure within the ultrasound phantom are determined by processing the image/scan plane to obtain a number of geometrical image parameters. Position and orientation of the image/scan plane are calculated from the image parameters using formulas based on a known three dimensional structure within the phantom. The determination of actual image/scan plane position and orientation may be enhanced using image de-correlation techniques. Retrieval of the stored data may be based upon the calculated position and orientation or on the obtained image parameters. In another embodiment of the present invention, relative changes in image/scan plane position and orientation with respect to an initial reference position and orientation are determined by processing successive acquired ultrasound images using image de-correlation techniques. In another embodiment of the present invention, the identity of each pixel or voxel within the image/scan plane is determined and a set of corresponding pixels or voxels of stored data are retrieved for display.
