摘要: In this study, we propose a high range resolution ultrasound imaging method using frequency domain interferometry with adaptive beamforming technique. We employ multiple reference signals to compensate the variation of vessel wall slope. The proposed succeeded acquire carotid artery image normal living human subject, where was applied single frame IQ data obtained by commercial ultrasonographic device. This result verified capability improve in ultrasonography. believe will largely progress medical diagnostics vascular ultrasound.
