  • Publication number: 20240319350
    Abstract: An ultrasound system includes an ultrasound transducer configured to transmit a plurality of ultrasound signals from a plurality of elements in a transducer array to a region of interest. The ultrasound transducer is configured to receive and sample a plurality of backscattered ultrasound signals from the region of interest. A processing unit is configured to calculate a local phase parameter in the time-domain for each of the plurality of backscattered ultrasound signals and calculate a center frequency for each of the local phase parameters. A beamformer is configured to perform receiver beamforming by summing the center frequencies. The ultrasound system is further configured to generate at least one parameter representative of a physical property of the region of interest based on the summed center frequencies. An ultrasound method for generating at least one parameter representative of a physical property of a region of interest is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11850097
    Abstract: A magnetomotive imaging probe system is disclosed comprising a movable probe, a magnet arranged on the probe, and an ultra sound transducer, wherein the magnet is arranged to generate a time-varying magnetic field (T) at an imaging plane (304) of the ultrasound transducer, distally of the ultra sound transducer and the probe, when the probe has a proximal first position adjacent the ultra sound transducer.
