1.
Sonography Divides the image into zones and focuses on each separately to enhance resolution and frame rate.
2.
Fusion Combines images from different frequencies to produce a more detailed and informative composite.
3.
Controls Settings and adjustments made by the sonographer to optimize image quality and diagnostic value.
4.
Imaging Focuses ultrasound beams at multiple depths to enhance lateral resolution.
5.
Ultrasound Adds real-time motion to 3D imaging, often used in fetal imaging to observe movement.
6.
Compounding Averages images taken from different angles to reduce speckle and improve tissue differentiation.
7.
Excitation Uses specially designed pulse sequences to improve signal-to-noise ratio and penetration.
8.
Frequency Filtering Adjusts frequency content of the signal in real-time to optimize image clarity at different depths.
9.
Imaging Uses a range of frequencies to improve penetration and resolution in ultrasound imaging.
10.
Harmonic Imaging Utilizes harmonic frequencies generated by tissue to produce clearer images with less noise.
11.
Field of View Allows visualization of larger anatomical areas by stitching together multiple frames.
12.
Ultrasound Captures volume data to create three-dimensional images of anatomical structures.
13.
Image Formation Technique that combines phase-aligned signals to enhance image resolution and contrast.
14.
Measures tissue stiffness to help differentiate between benign and malignant lesions.
15.
Acquisition The standard grayscale imaging mode that displays the amplitude of echoes as brightness on the screen.
