METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PERFORMING COLOR DOPPLER ULTRASOUND IMAGING

摘要

The invention provides a color Doppler ultrasound imaging method. The method includes acquiring a plurality of sparse color Doppler ultrasound image frames and B-mode ultrasound image frames. The color Doppler and B-mode image frames are then preprocessed before estimating a vector flow based on said frames. A new color Doppler image frame is generated based on this estimate and included in the output image.
