Pulse echo type acoustic imaging experiment

I. Overview

1. The basic principle of ultrasound imaging

Ultrasonic imaging is acoustic imaging using ultrasound. It includes pulse echo acoustical imaging and transmission acoustical imaging. The former is a pulsed acoustic wave that receives its echo and obtains it. An acoustic imaging method for image of an object; the latter is an acoustic imaging method for obtaining an image of an object using transmitted acoustic waves. Currently, ultrasonic diagnostic instruments for clinical applications use pulse echo type acoustic imaging. Some imaging of transmissive acoustic imaging The method is still under study, such as some types of computed tomography by ultrasound. Currently studied with computed tomography of acoustic Velocity and computed tomography of acoustic attenuation (computed tomography of acoustic attenuation) .

The experimental instrument is a method and technology for obtaining visible images of the tissue properties and structures of an object by receiving and processing echoes carrying information on the tissue or structural properties of the object by using ultrasonic waves. Compared with other imaging technologies, the experimental instrument has its own method. The unique advantage is that other imaging can not be replaced.

2. General rules of ultrasound imaging

All pulse echo type acoustic imaging relies on echo to reflect the information of the object tissue, while the echo comes from the reflection of the tissue interface and the backscatter of the scatterer. The intensity of the echo depends on the reflection coefficient of the interface, the backscattering intensity of the particles and the attenuation of the tissue. .

The greater the difference in acoustic impedance between the tissues of the interface of the object, the stronger the echo of the reflection. The intensity of the reflection is also related to the angle of incidence of the beam. The smaller the angle of incidence, the greater the intensity of the reflection, and the beam perpendicular to the incident interface. That is, when the incident angle is zero, the reflected sound intensity is the largest, and when the incident angle is 90 degrees, the reflected sound intensity is zero.

The attenuation of the acoustic energy of the object tissue depends on the attenuation coefficient of the tissue on the sound intensity and the propagation distance of the sound beam (ie the detection depth). The attenuation characteristics of the object are mainly reflected in the echo of the rear.

Multiple reflection ultrasound encounters a strong reflection interface. After the interface, a series of evenly spaced images that are sequentially weakened are called multiple reflections. This is formed by multiple round trips between the probe and the interface.

Fourth, the experimental principle

The transceiver is integrated with the duplex ultrasonic transducer to complete the signal transmission and echo reception; the DSP processor is used to control the transmission and reception signals of the ultrasonic sensor and the high-speed acquisition, and the data is analyzed and processed based on the FFT transformation, and Processing data is transferred to the computer, and the computer software is used to display the measured echo waveform and generate a two-dimensional cross-sectional image of the object.

In this experiment, the basic principle of rotational imaging is used to collect the echo signals of various sections around the object to reconstruct the cross-sectional image: the specific method is to collect the echo signals of the object at regular angles and store the data; Obtain the cross-sectional imaging map. During the acquisition process, the measured imaging acquisition map can be seen. The structure of the object can be analyzed from the curve. The following figure 4 is the actual measurement map collected by two drums together:

The experimental device is mainly composed of the following parts:

The water tank is in the shape of a barrel with an inner diameter of about 480mm. It has a rotation angle indication function. The imaged object is placed in the middle of the water tank, and the ultrasonic transducer head is aimed at the object. By rotating the water tank, the surface of the object directly exposed by the ultrasonic probe is changed, and the surface structure is different. The echo signals will be different.
