  • ULTRASOUND PROBE HOLDING DEVICES FOR INFANTS
    Publication number: 20240057969
    Abstract: An ultrasound probe holding device configured to attach to the head of an infant for transfontanellar imaging is disclosed, including a head pad configured to be in contact with the head of the infant and including a central opening, wherein the head pad is configured to receive an ultrasound probe; a pad squeezer, including a central opening and configured to cooperate with the head pad to allow an axial guidance of the head pad along a guidance axis substantially perpendicular to a surface tangent to the head of the infant; a device holder configured to be attached to the head of the infant and exert a downward force on the pad squeezer, along said guidance axis; and a repellent configured to exert a repellent force between the pad squeezer and the head pad when the device holder exerts the downward force on the pad squeezer.

  • Acoustic imaging method and device for detecting linearly combined reverberated waves via decoding matrices
    Patent number: 10955535
    Abstract: According to the invention, n incident acoustic waves Ei(t), obtained by linearly combining n elemental incident waves E0i(t) with an encoding matrix Hc are consecutively transmitted in a medium to be imaged. n reverberated waves Ri(t) from the medium to be imaged are then consecutively detected, following the transmission of the n incident waves; then n elemental reverberated waves R0i(t) are determined by linearly combining the detected n reverberated waves Ri(t) with a decoding matrix Hd. The Hc and Hd matrices are such that Hc·Hd=D, where D is a diagonal matrix of order n, all the diagonal elements of which are greater than 1.
