Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ultrasound imaging, in particular to a time compounding method and device based on ultrasound sequence similarity. Background technique [0002] Medical ultrasound images often degrade image quality (such as resolution and signal-to-noise ratio) due to the electronic noise of the hardware system and speckle noise caused by tissue echo coherence, making clinical diagnosis difficult. Algorithms for suppressing electronic noise and speckle noise can be divided into adaptive filtering and composite imaging techniques. Composite imaging technology is the weighted superposition of continuous or non-continuous frame images with certain correlation, which can reduce noise and improve image quality, including spatial compounding, frequency compounding and time compounding. Time compounding is realized by frame correlation technology, which is to select continuous frames at a certain time point in the image time p...
