Abstract

This article describes the role of computers and digital electronics in state-of-the-art diagnostic ultrasound scanners. An overview of the computational requirements is provided, and limits on color flow image frame rates are discussed. The new scanner architectures emerging may be used to extend current limitations of ultrasonography, making features such as automatic phase aberration correction, speckle reduction, and tissue characterization available.
