UFFC2019 US SCHOOL : Ultrasound motion imaging, Simulations & Phantom experimentations from 22 to 26/04/2019

From April 22, 2019 to April 26, 2019

  • Campus de LyonTech-la Doua, LYON, France

LEARNING OBJECTIVES Expose participants to the fundamentals of motion estimation by ultrasound imaging Get participants involved in the design of experimentations with a research scanner Deepen know-how in ultrasound signal analysis through Matlab programming Make participants familiar with motion estimation: theory, experimentation and analysis Learn from clinicians the potentials and limitations of ultrasound-derived motion Assist a clinician for the duration of a UNIQUE GE Healthcare-sponsored course!

TOPICS - THEORY & PRACTICE

  •  From raw experimental I/Q data to B-mode and Doppler images
  •  Dynamic phantom experimentations with Verasonics scanners
  •  Realistic simulations & signal post-processing using Matlab
  •  Clutter filtering & speckle tracking
  •  Color Doppler & vector Doppler
  •  Motion tracking in cardiology

  •  Basic knowledge of MATLAB is required during the hands-on sessions
