US Patent:

6436044, Aug 20, 2002

Filed:

Feb 14, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/503796

Inventors:

Hong Wang - Bellevue WA

Assignee:

Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. - Iselin NJ

International Classification:

A61B 800

US Classification:

600443

Abstract:

An ultrasound array imaging system ( ) and method for improving beamforming quality and ultimately for improving an ultrasound image are disclosed. The ultrasound array imaging system ( ) includes a transducer ( ), a first beamformer ( ), a second beamformer ( ) and a comparator ( ). The first beamformer ( ) receives a first electronic echo signal from the transducer ( ) and produces a first apodized beam signal in accordance with a first beamforming apodization function. The second beamformer ( ) receives the same electronic echo signal from the transducer ( ) and produces a second apodized beam signal in accordance with a second beamforming apodization function. The first and second apodized beam signals are compared in the comparator ( ) which then combines the first and second apodized beam signals to create a combined apodized beam signal for producing an image that has its lateral and contrast resolution simultaneously optimized.

International Classification:

G10L019/14

US Classification:

704219, 704225

Abstract:

A method and system of performing postfiltering in the frequency domain to improve the quality of a speech signal, especially for synthesized speech resulting from codecs of low bit-rate, is provided. The method comprises LPC tilt computation and compensation methods and modules, a formant filter gain computation method and module, and an anti-aliasing method and module. The formant filter gain calculation employs an LPC representation, an all-pole modeling, a non-linear transformation and a phase computation. The LPC used for deriving the postfilter may be transmitted from an encoder or may be estimated from a synthesized or other speech signal in a decoder or receiver. The invention may be implemented in a linked decoder and encoder. A separate LPC evaluation unit that is responsible for processing and or deriving the LPC may be implemented within the invention.

Filed:

Apr 6, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/820106

Inventors:

Hong Wang - Bellevue WA, US
John Klepper - Seattle WA, US

International Classification:

A61B008/02

US Classification:

600453000

Abstract:

Duplex operation for ultrasound imaging uses a single fixed voltage level. Both B-mode and color-mode imaging are performed using a power level that may be less than the power level for single-mode B-mode imaging, and may be greater than the power level for single-mode color-mode imaging. A duty cycle of color-mode pulses may be reduced. To enhance image quality, the number of cycles in the B-mode pulse profile may be increased. To enhance image quality, the center frequency of the B-mode pulse profile may be reduced, and dynamic filtering for B-mode received pulses may be appropriately modified.

International Classification:

G01N 27/62

US Classification:

435 71

Abstract:

Particular disclosed embodiments disclosed herein concern using a one or more various mass tags, which can be specifically deposited at targets through direct or indirect enzymatic-catalyzed transformation, to provide a method for identifying targets in tissue samples. The mass tags may be labeled with stable isotopes to produce mass tags having the same chemical structure but different masses. Mass codes produced by ionizing the mass tags are detected and/or quantified using mass spectrometry. The method can be used for multiplexed detection of multiple targets in a particular sample. In some embodiments, a map divided into sections representing sections of the tissue sample may be prepared, with the map sections including data corresponding to quantification data wherein the size of a mass peak is determined and correlated with the amount of a target for the corresponding tissue sample section.
