3D contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging of the muscle using a sparsely controlled matrix array probe

The matrix array probe combined with volumetric plane wave emission imaging provides the possibility of ultrafast 4D imaging. Some exciting studies have emerged in the field of small animal brain imaging. It is worth further explore the contrast performance in other tissues and diseases. In this study, we attempt to explore the performance of matrix array probe 4D ultrafast Doppler in neuromuscular imaging. Moreover, we adopt a sparse control strategy to control 1024 elements using a 256 channels system.
