ABSTRACT Non-invasive imaging of blood flow at over 100 fps (i.e. beyond video display range) is known to be of clinical interest given that such a high frame rate is essential for coherent visualization of complex hemodynamic events like flow turbulence. From a technical standpoint, getting into this frame rate range has became possible with the advent of broad-view ultrasound imaging paradigms that can track motion over an entire field-of-view using few pulse-echo firings. Leveraging on an imaging paradigm known as plane wave excitation, a novel high-frame-rate flow visualization technique has been developed to depict both blood speckle motion (using B-flow imaging principles) and flow velocities (using conventional color flow imaging principles). Experimental demonstration of this method has been carried out using a channel-domain research platform that supports real-time pre-beamformed data acquisition (SonixDAQ) and a high-throughput processing engine that is based upon graphical processing unit technology (developed in-house by the authors). In a case with a 417 fps frame rate (based on 5000 Hz pulse repetition frequency and slow-time ensemble size of 12), results show that high-frame-rate velocity-coded speckle imaging can more coherently trace fast-moving blood flow than conventional color flow imaging.

High-Frame-Rate Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography2018 •
Conventional echocardiography is the leading modality for noninvasive cardiac imaging. It has been recently illustrated that high-frame-rate echocardiography using diverging waves could improve cardiac assessment. The spatial resolution and contrast associated with this method are commonly improved by coherent compounding of steered beams. However, owing to fast tissue velocities in the myocardium, the summation process of successive diverging waves can lead to destructive interferences if motion compensation (MoCo) is not considered. Coherent compounding methods based on MoCo have demonstrated their potential to provide high-contrast B-mode cardiac images. Ultrafast speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) based on common speckle-tracking algorithms could substantially benefit from this original approach. In this paper, we applied STE on high-frame-rate B-mode images obtained with a specific MoCo technique to quantify the 2-D motion and tissue velocities of the left ventricle. The m...
