Abstract: An ultrasound imaging system includes acoustic elements configured to transmit ultrasound energy and receive associated echoes. The system further includes a processor circuit in communication with the acoustic elements. The processor circuit may be configured to receive data corresponding to a set of subframes based on the echoes. The set of subframes includes a first and second subframe. The processor circuit may be configured to coherently combine data corresponding to a first portion of the first subframe and data corresponding to a first portion of the second subframe, which may both include phase information. The processor circuit may be configured to generate an image based on the coherent combination of the first portion of the first subframe and the first portion of the second subframe and to output the generated image to a display in communication with the processor circuit.

Abstract: An imaging system includes an x-ray or gamma ray source that emits an x-ray or gamma ray beam, a tunnel having a plurality of detectors, and a translatable platform. The detectors each receive a portion of the beam. The translatable platform supports cargo or a transported container and moves through the tunnel so that the cargo or transported container crosses the portions of the beam received by the detectors. The translatable platform may rotate and move through the tunnel at multiple angles. The imaging system may also include a computer and a graphical interface. The computer may receive information collected by the detectors and may reconstruct a three-dimensional image of the cargo or transported container. The graphical interface may display the three-dimensional image or information derived from the three-dimensional image. According to other embodiments, a system for creating a three-dimensional image may receive data from a wide vertical beam angle and generate and output a three-dimensional model.

Abstract: Devices and methods are provided for performing an ablation procedure on tissue with flow monitoring using flow sensors. The devices include a catheter, and at least one flow sensor disposed on the catheter, and a component for applying the ablation procedure. An assessment module provides an indication of the efficacy of the ablation procedure based on the flow measurement from the flow sensor.
