The impact of vendor-specific ultrasound beam-forming and processing techniques on the visualization of in vitro experimental ‘‘scar’’: implications for myocardial scar imaging using two-dimensional and three-dimensional echocardiography

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Myocardial scar appears brighter compared with normal myocardium on echocardiography because of differences in tissue characteristics. The aim of this study was to test how different ultrasound pulse characteristics affect the brightness contrast (i.e., contrast ratio [CR]) between tissues of different acoustic properties, as well as the accuracy of assessing tissue volume.
