Abstract

Course Description: This course will introduce students to a variety of current and emerging methods in ultrasound imaging. Concepts will be grounded in fundamental physical principles (acoustic waves, piezoelectric transduction, diffraction, scattering) and progress to methods of array beamforming, k-space representation, and imaging system architecture. Ultrasound nonlinearity, bioeffects, safety metrics, as well as Doppler (flow), harmonic, contrast-enhanced, and elastography imaging methods will also be introduced. Students will have the opportunity to observe ultrasound experiments and perform ultrasound imaging on an abdominal phantom.
