摘要

We present a new, intelligent interface for freehand strain imaging, which has been designed to support clinical trials investigating the potential of ultrasonic strain imaging for diagnostic purposes across a broad range of target pathologies. The aim with this interface is to make scanning easier and to help clinicians learn the necessary scanning technique quickly, by providing real time feedback indicating the quality of the strain data as they are produced. The methods require a pixel-level indicator of estimation precision, which can be calculated in-line with strain estimation. This is exploited in novel approaches to normalisation, persistence and display. The effect of each component is indicated in the results with examples from in vitro and in vivo scanning. As well as providing real-time feedback, the images are easier to interpret because data at unacceptably low signal-to-noise ratios do not reach the display. Additionally, the level of noise in the displayed images is actually reduced compared with other methods that use the same strain estimates with the same level of persistence. The interface also considerably reduces the difficulty in producing volumes of strain data from freehand three-dimensional scans.
