摘要： A verification mode execution unit that executes a verification mode for verifying an operation of an ultrasound transducer array in which a plurality of ultrasound transducers are arranged includes an ultrasound image data generation unit that generates ultrasound image data of each pixel corresponding to each ultrasound transducer from a transmission and reception signal of each ultrasound transducer, and a failure channel detection unit that analyzes the generated ultrasound image data to detect a failed failure transducer channel, in which the transducer channel is a channel that includes the ultrasound transducer and that generates the ultrasound image data of the pixel, and the failure channel detection unit changes a determination criterion for determining the failure in accordance with a condition related to an influence degree on an acquired ultrasound image. As a result, provided is an ultrasound diagnostic system that can provide a mechanism for a user such as a medical worker and a service man who performs maintenance or inspection to detect and to notify of disconnections of the ultrasound transducer and a transmission line such as a signal line of the ultrasound transducer in a simple and automatic manner on a daily basis to specify a failure channel.

摘要： Disclosed herein are dynamically adjusting ultrasound-imaging systems and methods thereof. For example, an ultrasound-imaging system can include an ultrasound probe, a console, and a display screen. The ultrasound probe includes an array of ultrasonic transducers that, when activated, emit generated ultrasound signals into a patient, receive reflected ultrasound signals from the patient, and convert the reflected ultrasound signals into corresponding electrical signals for processing into ultrasound images. The console is configured to execute instructions for dynamically adjusting a distance of activated ultrasonic transducers from a predefined target or area, an orientation of the activated ultrasonic transducers to the predefined target or area, or both the distance and the orientation of the activated ultrasonic transducers with respect to the predefined target or area. The display screen is configured to display a graphical user interface including the ultrasound images processed by the console from the corresponding electrical signals of the ultrasound signals.

摘要： Systems and methods for a multi-layer flexible array interconnect for an ultrasound transducer, and methods of manufacture are disclosed. The systems and methods described herein provide consistent and controllable alignment between the odd and even flex layers. Further, ground layers are added between the signal layers to improve crosstalk performance while simplifying the construction. In some implementations, vias are introduced at the interface of an electromechanical-array element (e.g., lead zirconate titanate (PZT) element) to increase the surface area of conductive material and thereby increase the quality of the electrical and physical connections. In addition, a machining alignment and verification aid is provided through strategic use of unused and discarded board area to enable (i) alignment check of the flex circuit with the machining equipment and (ii) adjustment of the flex circuit position relative to the machining equipment to avoid the flex circuit being machined to an unusable state.
