Velocity fluctuation reduction in vector Doppler ultrasound using a hybrid single/dual-beam algorithm
2003
In order to reduce the fluctuations in the velocity magnitude estimate, we propose a modification to the standard algorithm for reconstructing the (two component) vector velocity from the measured Doppler shifts in two directions. This uses the standard dual-beam algorithm, combined with temporal smoothing, to find only the velocity angle, then uses the single-beam algorithm to estimate the velocity magnitude. We present initial data showing the significant reduction in velocity estimate fluctuation that this hybrid method achieves compared to the standard algorithm.
