Problems solved by technology

Moreover, when measuring viscous or soft tissues, the peak part of the shear wave presents a flat peak. If the noise is superimposed on the shear wave waveform, the position of the actually found maximum value of the waveform may deviate from the real peak position of the shear wave, resulting in an error in the calculation of the shear wave velocity
Moreover, for the shear wave elastography based on the acoustic radiation force, the amplitude of the shear wave is very low, and it is easy to appear an isolated maximum point far away from the shear wave peak, resulting in an error in the determination of the shear wave peak

Embodiment 1

[0048] Such as figure 1 , 7 , 8, 9, and 10 are schematic flow charts of the method for correcting the shear wave peak waveform of the present invention. The present invention proposes a method for shear wave peak waveform correction, said method comprising the steps of:

[0049] S101. Acquire the original shear wave time waveform.

[0050] Such as Figure 9 A (indicated by the black solid line) shows the waveform of a shear wave actually detected, and F is the actual correct waveform of the shear wave (indicated by the red solid line). It can be seen that due to the influence of noise, the waveform does not rise and fall smoothly, but has many irregular fluctuations. If the maximum value of the waveform is directly used as the arrival time of the shear wave according to the conventional method, then the time position will fall at point E, that is. But looking at the entire shear wave waveform, the center of the theoretical waveform is obviously not point E.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ultrasonic images, in particular to a method, device, system and application of shear wave peak waveform correction. Background technique [0002] Shear wave elastography based on acoustic radiation force is an ultrasound elastography technique for evaluating tissue elasticity, which is widely used in the analysis and diagnosis of human tissue lesions. The principle of shear wave elastography technology based on acoustic radiation force is: after the probe emits ultrasonic pulses to the soft tissue of the organism, under the action of acoustic radiation force, the soft tissue in a specific area will vibrate, and under the action of soft tissue shear stress Under normal circumstances, the vibration will propagate to the surroundings, thereby generating shear waves. Since the elasticity of the soft tissue of the organism has a certain relationship with the velocity of the shear wave, the elasticity of the s...
