摘要： A method and apparatus for quantifying and displaying ultrasound signals in an ultrasonic system are provided. A first signal value for each of at least one spatial location in a region of interest is acquired at a first time, and the signal values are summed to obtain a first surface integral value. A second signal value for each of said at least one spatial location in said region of interest is acquired at a second time, and the second signal values are summed to obtain a second surface integral value. The first surface integral value is summed with the second surface integral value to obtain a time based integral. The time based integral is displayed. Other quantities based on any of various ultrasound parameters, such as Doppler energy, Doppler velocity and B-mode intensity, are calculated and displayed as quantities or as waveforms as a function of time. Furthermore, various comparisons of quantities and waveforms are provided. Image plane data or other ultrasound data are used in the calculations. Finally, a histogram data structure is provided to aid calculation of the various quantities.

摘要： The energy, power or amplitude of Doppler or time shift information signals is compared to a threshold in order to select a large or small weighting factor for temporal persistence. In the event of a "flash" signal or strong arterial flow signal, a small weighting factor is chosen to reduce the extent of temporal persistence via feedback of the averaged value for the prior frames so that the effect of the "flash" or strong flow signal would quickly dissipate in the imaging of subsequent frames and good temporal resolution preserved for the current frames, while low energy flow signals would cause a large weighting factor to be selected to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of low energy signals. Similar effects can be achieved by clipping the signals to not exceed a certain threshold.

摘要： Methods and apparatus for enhancing the clarity of and the diagnostic information in real-time B-mode and M-mode ultrasound displays including a beamformer for acquiring ultrasound receive signals for each ultrasound scan line of a two-dimensional image and processing the receive signals for each ultrasound scan line into detected and filtered video signals for storage in scan line acquisition memory with programmable dynamically variable non-linear filters for processing the video signals with continuously and automatically varying filter responses over a range of low and high pass responses followed by scan converting and display of the non-linearly processed video signals. The non-linear filters may process video signals in range along each ultrasound scan line or azimuthally along multiple ultrasound scan lines of a two-dimensional B-mode image. The non-linear filters also can be two-dimensionally programmable for processing video signals both in range along each ultrasound scan line and azimuthally along multiple ultrasound scan lines over regions of a two-dimensional B-mode image. The non-linear filter may be responsive to a local signal measurement and to spatial positions in a B-mode image for control of filter parameters. The non-linear filter can also be programmable to accommodate variable system characteristics for particular imaging applications.
