Ultrasound imaging is a safe, relatively simple and inexpensive, and real-time modality for the imaging of soft tissues, and has been used ubiquitously in clinics for many years. It has good spatial resolution and imaging depth. However, poor detectability of low-contrast lesions and the high cost of 3-D ultrasound imaging systems are two significant limitations of ultrasound applications. The applicant’s research program will address both of these.

超声成像是一种安全、相对简单和廉价的用于软组织成像的实时模式，并且已经在临床上广泛使用多年。它具有良好的空间分辨率和成像深度。然而，低对比度病变的可检测性差和3-D超声成像系统的高成本是超声应用的两个显著限制。申请人的研究计划将解决这两个问题。
