Abstract
The present invention is directed to systems and methods for use in ultrasound imaging for selective optimization of imaging parameters for anatomical regions of interest. Systems and methods of the invention provide for selectively adjusting the imaging parameters to achieve a higher resolution and/or deeper penetration into tissue to thereby improve image quality and/or the field of view in a selected region of interest.
Claims23
A system for providing selective image focusing, the system comprising:
- a console configured to be operably associated with an ultrasound imaging device and exchange data therewith, wherein the console comprises a hardware processor coupled to non-transitory, computer-readable memory containing instructions executable by the processor to cause the console to:
- define a set of parameters associated with operation of an ultrasound transducer unit of an ultrasound imaging device to achieve an imaging characteristic of one or more images captured via the ultrasound imaging device for a first selected region of interest;
- and
- adjust the set of parameters, wherein adjusting the set of parameters provides directional focusing and/or imaging quality control at a second selected region of interest such that the imaging characteristic and/or an image quality is optimized for one or more directions at the second selected region of interest as compared to the first selected region of interest.
