本文介绍了一个超声系统的仿真程序。它基于Tupholme-Stepanishen方法，并且由于使用了fareld近似而速度很快。可以模拟任何类型的换能器几何形状和激励，并且可以计算发射和脉冲回波的脉冲回波和连续波电场。动态变迹和聚焦通过时间线处理，并且可以模拟不同的聚焦方案。通过将其与Matlab接口，确保了程序的多功能性。所有例程都直接从Matlab调用，并且可以使用所有Matlab功能。这使得模拟所有类型的超声成像系统成为可能。
A program for the simulation of ultrasound systems is presented. It is based on the Tupholme-Stepanishen method, and is fast because of the use of a fareld approximation. Any kind of transducer geometry and excitation can be simulated, and both pulse-echo and continuous wave elds can be calculated for both transmit and pulse-echo. Dynamic apodization and focusing are handled through time lines, and different focusing schemes can be simulated. The versatility of the program is ensured by interfacing it to Matlab. All routines are called directly from Matlab, and all Matlab features can be used. This makes it possible to simulate all types of ultrasound imaging systems.
