Technology

We study the feasibility of processing B-mode images instead of RF data to generate ultrasound elastography displacement fields. We use the exhaustive search (ES) algorithm which is a basic block matching algorithm from the video compression domain. We also apply two modifications to ES that can enhance both speed and detectability. Quantitative measurements of accuracy and runtime are presented. Results and potential future work are discussed.
