Ultrasound Imaging

LTS5 research in ultrasound imaging

Regularization methods in ultrasound imaging

In terms of acoustic wave propagation, ultrasound imaging poses an inverse problem which relates the tissue reflectivity (image under scrutiny) to the backscattered echoes (the measurements). Standard imaging methods are based on a well-known algorithm called Delay-and-sum (DAS). The major advantage of DAS is that it is fast and highly parallelizable. Its main drawback is that it is an inaccurate solution of the inverse problem which leads to low-quality images. One research topic in LTS5 consists in exploring alternatives to DAS mainly based on regularization approaches. The idea is to inject prior knowledge (sparsity of the image in a well-chosen model) about the tissue reflectivity in order to leverage the ill-posedness of the problem. The problem is recast as a convex optimization algorithm and solved using standard algorithms such as ADMM, primal-dual forward backward or FISTA.

Compressed sensing and deep learning in ultrasound imaging

Compressed sensing or compressive sensing (CS) is a well-known mathematical framework which ensures perfect recovery of compressible signals from random projections with fewer samples than Nyquist rate. The recovery is achieved by solving a convex optimization problem where the most compressible solution which fits to the measurements is identified. This framework has been substantially studied in the last ten years and has lead to great successes such as: the Rice single pixel camera or the Sparse MRI. At LTS5, we are currently working on applying the CS framework to ultrasound imaging. The first idea is to exploit the intrinsic structure of US data which can be modelled as a stream of pulses, compressible in a redundant dictionary made of shifted replica of the ultrasound pulse. The second idea consists in designing acquisition schemes that are most suited to the CS framework. The last work focuses on designing efficient reconstruction algorithms. To do so, we are intensively working on deep learning algorithms which are becoming extremely popular nowadays due to their ability to perform a various of tasks (object recognition, classification, text generation, image colorization etc.). At LTS5, we are currently focusing on three main deep neural netwrok architectures for ultrasound imaging:

  • DNN that maps convex optimization algorithms such as Fast-Iterative thredsholding algorithm (FISTA);
  • Fully connected architectures (Stacked denoising autoencoders, Multi-layer perceptron);
  • Convolutional neural networks.
