1. Methods for determining focal point and delay for ultrasound arrays and multichannel electronics
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknikAbstract : High intensity focused ultrasound is a growing technique for tissue ablation, among other uses, and given its destructive capabilities, there is a need for control of where the energy is delivered. There exist a number of methods for focusing such ultrasound arrays, but these often assume prior knowledge of the impulse response, or require extensive full-system simulations. READ MORE

2. Improving the experimental setup for ultrasound-optical tomography imaging
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : According to Bröstcancer förbundet, mammography is not efficient at detecting tumors in dense breast tissue or diagnosing breast cancer at its early stages. Ultrasound-optical tomography (UOT) is an imaging technique in development and has the potential for deep-tissue imaging. READ MORE
