Ultrasound Beamforming and Array Processing

Catalog description

The course covers the fundamentals of beamforming and array processing as applied to medical ultrasound imaging. Topics of the course include the physics of wave propagation, sampling requirements for aperture data, beamforming in the time and frequency domains, noise in beamforming, and ultrasound data acquisition geometries. Students will learn how to analyze and implement different beamforming techniques through project-based assignments.
