    • An enhanced intraluminal flow measurement system and method is conducive for a low-power ultrasonic system that can use continuous-wave (CW) Doppler sensing and wireless RF telemetry. Applications include measurement of blood flow in situ in living organisms. Implementations include an extraluminal component located outside of a body, such as a human or animal body, containing a lumen. The extraluminal component can be wirelessly coupled via an RF magnetic field or other RF field to an implantable intraluminal component. The intraluminal component (i.e. implant) is implanted inside of the lumen of the body such as a heart or elsewhere in a vasculature (such as in a dialysis shunt). The intraluminal component can telemeter, via RF electromagnetic signals, flow data directly out of the body housing the intraluminal component to be received by the extraluminal component.

    • A parameter indicative of the condition of a cardiac valve is determined by monitoring blood flow and/or velocity in a vessel that is coupled to the cardiac valve or in a chamber adjacent to an artificial cardiac valve. One or more ultrasonic transducers are provided either in a wall or a cuff disposed about a cardiac vessel to monitor the parameter in regard to a natural or artificial cardiac valve, or in a support sewing ring of an artificial cardiac valve. A conformal array transducer or a tilted element is used to monitor fluid flow or velocity based on the effect of the blood on ultrasonic waves produced by the transducers. The conformal array transducer comprises a plurality of elements that are excited with an input signal provided by an implantable electronics circuit, producing ultrasonic waves. Transit time or Doppler measurements are made using an appropriate number of these transducers to determine either blood volumetric flow or velocity. Various implantable electronic circuits are disclosed that enable a transducer to be driven and to receive an ultrasonic signal indicative of the status of blood flow and thus, the condition of the cardiac valve. A radio frequency (RF) coil is coupled to an external coil. The external coil is connected to a power supply and monitoring console, conveying power to the ultrasonic transducers and receiving data signals that enable the condition of the cardiac valve to be determined.

    • A probe for testing ultrasound transducers is described. The probe is made of a body of material which absorbs ultrasound. There is a conical opening in the body, and a spherical transducer is mounted in the wider opening at the base of the conical opening. When the probe is used as a surface probe, a transducer undergoing tests is placed at the opening at the apex of the cone. Typically the conical opening is filled with a fluid which simulates the absorption qualities of the material with which the tested transducer will ultimately be used. For example, the transducer undergoing the test will be used with human body tissue, so a fluid such as water or light mineral oil would typically fill the cone-shaped opening. The present invention can also be used as a hydrophone, because of the manner in which it generates, or senses, pressure waves at a point in space.
    • 描述了用于测试超声换能器的探头。 探头由吸收超声的材料体制成。 体内有一个圆锥形开口,球形换能器安装在锥形开口底部的较宽开口处。 当探针用作表面探针时,经过测试的传感器放置在锥体顶点的开口处。 典型地,圆锥形开口填充有流体,该流体模拟最终将使用所测试的换能器的材料的吸收质量。 例如,经受测试的换能器将与人体组织一起使用,因此诸如水或轻质矿物油的流体通常将填充锥形开口。 本发明也可以用作水听器,因为它在空间中产生或感测压力波的方式。
