摘要： An applicator for providing HIFU therapy to a patient includes a HIFU transducer that is rotatably coupled to a frame. In one embodiment, the rotatable coupling is configured such that the HIFU transducer can be mechanically oriented to position a focal zone of the HIFU transducer at any desired location in a treatment volume radially outward from a longitudinal axis of the applicator while the HIFU transducer remains within a housing that is not more than a defined percentage (e.g., 50%) larger than the maximum diameter of the HIFU transducer. In one embodiment, the HIFU transducer is rotatably coupled to the frame with a ball and socket joint. In another embodiment, the HIFU transducer is rotatably coupled to the frame with an offset gimble assembly. A pair of linear actuators and drive shafts engage the HIFU transducer to orient HIFU transducer in a desired direction.

摘要： Phantoms for testing and measuring the performance of ultrasonic imaging systems have regions of precisely controlled scattering or echogenicity which contain sub-resolvable scatterers. The regions are precisely positioned so as to define patterns which form images from which the performance of the ultrasonic imaging system can be evaluated to assure the quality of the images. The phantoms can reveal the combined influences of all the stages in the imaging chain in terms of modulation transfer function and resolution limits as well as other artifacts and defects in the system such as aliasing and degraded frequency response which cannot be evaluated with conventional ultrasound phantoms. The subresolution scattering regions may be formed by printing them on a thin film sheet or substrate using photo lithography, electrostatic xerographic printing or etching; the toner particles or deposited material forming the scatters being sub-resolvable in size. Half-tone masks, such as blue noise masks, may be used to produce regions of precisely controlled sub-resolvable scatters to be used for grey scale evaluation of the imaging system by producing speckle images of different echogenicity. The thin film sheets are thinner than the thickness of the ultrasonic beam and enable propagation of the beam in the plane of the sheets to the patterns which may be located at different depths. The thin film sheets may be displaced, as by being vibrated. The sheets may be made of piezoelectric material having electrodes across which varying electrical signals are applied to displace the sheets thereby simulating movement of objects for Doppler measurements.

摘要： Phantoms for testing and measuring the performance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and x-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging systems have regions of precisely controlled magnetic resonance and x-ray absorption imaging properties. These regions contain subresolvable regions, or distinct micro regions, with pre-selected magnetic resonance or x-ray absorption properties, called scatterers. The regions are precisely positioned so as to define patterns which form images from which the performance of the imaging system can be evaluated to assure the quality of the images. The phantoms can reveal the combined influences of all the stages in the imaging chain in terms of modulation transfer function and resolution limits as well as other artifacts and defects in the system such as aliasing and degraded spatial frequency response which cannot be evaluated with conventional phantoms. The subresolution scattering regions may be formed by printing them on a thin film sheet or substrate using photo lithography, electrostatic xerographic printing or etching; the toner particles or deposited material forming the scatterers being sub-resolvable in size. Half-tone masks, such as blue noise masks, may be used to produce regions of precisely controlled sub-resolvable scatterers to be used for grey scale evaluation of the imaging system by producing images of different image density. The thin film sheets are thinner than the thickness of the x-ray CT beam or the MRI slice thickness excitation. The thin film sheets may be displaced, as by being vibrated. The sheets may be made of piezoelectric material having electrodes across which varying electrical signals are applied to displace the sheets thereby simulating movement of objects for Doppler measurements. Similar phantoms are used for testing and measuring the performance of ultrasonic imaging systems.
