ULTRASOUND CONFIDENCE MAPS OF INTENSITY AND STRUCTURE BASED ON DIRECTED ACYCLIC GRAPHS AND ARTIFACT MODELS |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Ultrasound imaging has been improving, but continues to suffer from inherent artifacts that are challenging to model, such as attenuation, shadowing, diffraction, speckle, etc. These artifacts can potentially confuse image analysis algorithms unless an attempt is made to assess the certainty of individual pixel values. Our novel confidence algorithms analyze pixel values using a directed acyclic graph based on acoustic physical properties of ultrasound imaging. We demonstrate unique capabilities of our approach and compare it against previous confidence-measurement algorithms for shadow-detection and image-compounding tasks. |
