Beamforming-deconvolution: A novel concept of deconvolution for ultrasound imaging

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Yves Wiaux, Adrien Georges Jean Besson

In ultrasound (US) imaging, beamforming is usually separated from the deconvolution or some other post-processing techniques. The former processes raw data to build radio-frequency (RF) images while the latter restore high-resolution images, denoted as tis ...
