ProgramThe aim of the Summer School is to give a graduate-level introduction to advanced ultrasound imaging and its theoretical basis. This includes the concepts of linear acoustic systems, simulation, syntehtic aperture, and pane wave imaging along with flow estimation The course consists of a set of lectures given by international experts in ultrasound imaging and signal processing, and a number of exercises following each lecture. The exercises utilize Matlab and the Field II program for the simulation of ultrasound imaging systems. Topics:
A working knowledge of Matlab is needed to complete the exercises. No prior knowledge of the ultrasound simulation program Field II is needed, although it would be beneficial. The course is open for Ph.D. students and researchers interested in acoustics and medical ultrasound imaging. |
