- Abstract:
- Vector velocity imaging using the Transverse Oscillation (TO) approach has recently been FDA approved for linear array transducers on a commercial platform. It can now be used clinically for studying the complex flow at e.g. bifurcations, valves, and the heart in real time. Several clinical examples from venous flow to rotational flow in the heart will be shown. The technique is also being further developed and adapted for convex and phased array probes, for spectral velocity estimation, pressure estimation, and for three dimensional velocity tensor imaging. It is shown how the methods are optimized using Field II simulations along with several examples of their performance.
