摘要: An ultrasound system includes an transducer having array of elements and a beam origin located between two adjacent elements, each the for converting received energy into echo signal; beamformer that initialization controller circuitry calculating parameters according to process from reduced table; at least one channel delay circuit controller; summer summing phase-aligned signals form beamformed signal.
