First, ultrasound can be directed as a beam and focused

It obeys the laws of reflection and refraction It is poorly transmitted through a gaseous

medium and attenuation occurs rapidly, especially at higher frequencies.

The amount of reflection, refraction, and attenuation depends on the acoustic properties of the various media through which the ultrasound beam passes.

Page 3: Basics of echocardiograghy

Within soft tissue, velocity of sound is fairly constant at approximately 1,540 m/sec (or 1.54 m/msec, or 1.54 mm/µsec).

Wave length(in millimeters) = 1.54/f, where f is the transducer frequency (in megahertz).

Page 4: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 5: Basics of echocardiograghy

higher frequency ultrasound has less penetration compared with lower frequency ultrasound.

The loss of ultrasound as it propagates through a medium is referred to as attenuation.

Attenuation has three components: absorption, scattering, and reflection.

Attenuation always increases with depth and is also affected by the frequency and the type of tissue.

Page 6: Basics of echocardiograghy

Attenuation may be expressed as “half-value layer”or “half-power distance”which is a measure of the distance that ultrasound travels before its amplitude is decreased to one half its original value

As a rule of thumb, the attenuation of ultrasound in tissue is between 0.5 and 1.0 dB/cm/MHz.

Page 7: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 8: Basics of echocardiograghy

The velocity and direction of the ultrasound beam as it passes through a medium are a function of the acoustic impedance of that medium.

Acoustic impedance (Z, measured in rayls) is simply the product of velocity (in meters per second) and physical density (in kilograms per cubic meter).

Page 9: Basics of echocardiograghy

The phenomena of reflection and refraction obey the laws of optics and depend on the angle of incidence as well as the acoustic mismatch.

Small differences in velocity also determine refraction.

These properties explain the importance of using an acoustic coupling gel during transthoracic imaging.

This is primarily due to the very high acoustic impedance of air.

Page 10: Basics of echocardiograghy

Specular echoes are produced by reflectors that are large relative to ultrasound wavelength. Eg: endocardial and epicardial surfaces, valves, and pericardium.

Targets that are small relative to the wavelength of the transmitted ultrasound produce scattering, and such objects are sometimes referred to as Rayleigh scatterers.

Scattered echoes provide the substrate for visualizing the texture of gray-scale images.

The term speckle is used to describe the tissue-ultrasound interactions that result from a large number of small reflectors within a resolution cell.

Most commercial transducers employ ceramics, such as ferroelectrics, barium titanate, and lead zirconate titanate.

Dampening (or backing) material, which shortens the ringing response of the piezoelectric material after the brief excitation pulse. An excessive ringing response lengthens the ultrasonic pulse and decreases range resolution.

At the surface of the transducer, matching layers are applied to provide acoustic impedance matching between the piezoelectric elements and the body

Page 15: Basics of echocardiograghy

An important feature of ultrasound is the ability to direct or focus the beam .

The proximal or cylindrical portion of the beam is referred to as the near field or Fresnel zone.

When it begins to diverge, it is called the far field or Fraunhofer zone.

Maximizing the length of the near field is an important goal of echocardiography.

Page 16: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 17: Basics of echocardiograghy

The ultrasound beam is both focused and steered electronically, beam manipulation can be achieved through the use of phased array transducer.

By adjusting the timing of excitation and adjustments in the timing allow the beam to be steered through a sector arc, resulting in a two-dimensional image.

electronic transmit focusing of the beam can either be fixed or adjustable, and the process is referred to as dynamic transmit focussing.

Page 18: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 19: Basics of echocardiograghy

Focusing concentrates the acoustic energy into a smaller area, resulting in increased intensity .

By increasing beam intensity within the near field, the strength of returning signals is enhanced. An undesirable effect of focusing is its effect on beam divergence in the far field

Page 20: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 21: Basics of echocardiograghy

Intensity varies across the lateral dimensions of the beam

It is customary to measure the beam width at its half amplitude or intens.

At high gain settings, the weaker portion of the ultrasound beam is recorded and beam width is greater.

Page 22: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 23: Basics of echocardiograghy

Resolution has at least two components: spatial and temporal.

Spatial resolution - smallest distance that two targets can be separated .

Axial resolution

lateral resolution

Page 24: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 25: Basics of echocardiograghy

Commercial echographs have repetition rates between 200 and 5,000 per second.

M-mode , pulse repetition rates of between 1,000 and 2,000 per second are used.

For two-dimensional imaging, repetition rates of 3,000 to 5,000 per second are necessary to create the 90-degree sector scan.

Because all the pulses are devoted to a single raster line, the temporal resolution is actually much higher for M-mode

• one of the most important components of quantitation of ventricular function.

• Qualitative and quantitative data derived from echocardiography, e.g., LV dimensions and wall thickness, can influence patient management and serve as potent predictors of outcomes

• Chronic stable coronary artery disease, there is a consistent relationship between heart size and outcomes

• The same applies to patients without heart failure.• Framingham Heart Study patients without a history

of heart failure or myocardial infarction, LV size (by M-mode echocardiography) was an important predictor of subsequent risk of heart failure.

THREE DIMENSIONAL ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY

Page 82: Basics of echocardiograghy

• One of the most significant developments of the last decades was the introduction of 3-dimensional (3D) imaging and its evolution from slow and labor-intense off-line reconstruction to real-time volumetric imaging

• The major proven advantage of this technique is the improvement in the accuracy of the echocardiographic evaluation of cardiac chamber volumes.

• Another benefit of 3D imaging is the realistic and unique comprehensive views of cardiac valves and congenital abnormalities

Page 83: Basics of echocardiograghy

• The major breakthrough that allowed quality real-time imaging was the development of a microbeam former

• When the entire crystal of the transducer head is sampled or covered with elements, the transducer is a dense array

• The microbeam former is required for this arrangement to provide a communication of all of the approximately 3000 elements to the ultrasound system

Page 84: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 85: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 86: Basics of echocardiograghy

• Transducer design

• 2 D Matrix array of transducer elements helps generate the third dimension

• The significant innovation that actually allows steering is making the elements electrically independent from each other

• This allows generating a scan line that varies azimuthally and elevationally

Page 87: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 88: Basics of echocardiograghy
Page 89: Basics of echocardiograghy

• Modern 2D transducers therefore consist of thousands of electrically active elements that steer a scan line left and right as well as up and down

Page 90: Basics of echocardiograghy

• Beam forming in three spatial dimensions1. Beam forming constitutes the steering and focusing

of transmitted and received scan lines2. Significant portion of the beam steering is done

within the transducer in highly specialized integrated circuit

3. The main system steers at coarse angles, but the transducer circuits steer in fine increments in a process termed microbeam forming

4. Summing is the act of combining raw acoustic information from each element to generate a scan line and by summing these in a sequence (first in the transducer and then subsequently in the system)

Page 91: Basics of echocardiograghy

• There are two major black and white modes run in an electronically steered 3D system

• Live mode where the system scans in realtime three dimension

• Gating, this time only four to eight beats, allows a technique to generate wider volumes while maintaining frame rate

• 3 D modes1.Live 3D mode–instantaneous2.3D zoom–instantaneous3.Full-volume–gated4.3D color Doppler–gated

Page 92: Basics of echocardiograghy

• Display of 3D information1.A 3D data set consists of bricks of pixels

called volume elements or voxels• A process known as cropping can be used

to cut into the volume and make some voxels invisible

• 3D data sets of voxels are turned into 2D images in a process known as volume rendering

Page 93: Basics of echocardiograghy

• All 3D echocardiography is subject to the laws of physics.

• Artifacts such as ringing, reverberations, shadowing, and attenuation occur in three and two dimensions.

• . The constraints of a 3D image are bounded by:

(1)Frame rate,

(2) 3D volume size,

(3) Image resolution. • Increasing the requirement of one of these causes a

drop in the other two

Page 94: Basics of echocardiograghy

• 1) Direct evaluation of cardiac chamber volumes without the need for geometric modeling

• 2) Noninvasive realistic views of cardiac valves and congenital abnormalities , helpful for showing a variety of pathologies and assessing the effectiveness of surgical or percutaneous transcatheter interventions

• 3) Direct3D assessment of regional LV wall motion aimed at objective detection of ischemic heart disease at rest and during stress testing ,as well as quantification of systolic asynchrony to guide ventricular resynchronization therapy

• 4) 3D color Doppler imaging with volumetric quantification of regurgitant lesions shunts ,and cardiac output

• 5) Volumetric imaging and quantification of myocardial perfusion

Page 95: Basics of echocardiograghy

• True myocardial motion occurs in three dimensions, and traditional 2D scanning planes do not capture the entire motion of the heart

• Quantifying implies segmenting structures of interest from the 3D voxel set

• 3D quantification of the left ventricle typically employs a surface- rendered mesh

• This allows accurate computation of volume, regional wall motion, and regional synchrony

• Most studies have been done on mitral valve. Understanding about the mitral valve annulus, leaflet tethering, tenting volumes has improved with the advent of 3 D echocardiography

M-MODE ECHOCARDIOGRPHY

Page 108: Basics of echocardiograghy

• B mode echoes from an interface that changes position will be seen as echoes moving towards and away from the transducer.

• If a trace line is placed on this interface and the resulting trace is made to drift across the face of a CRT screen a motion pattern is obtained.

Page 109: Basics of echocardiograghy

• The resulting display shows motion of a reflector over distance and time – a distance time graph

• The change in distance (dy) over a period of time dt is represented by the slope of the reflector line of motion.

• dy/dt = slope = velocity

Page 110: Basics of echocardiograghy

• If this motion pattern is obtained on moving cardiac structures then the resulting images constitute M-mode echocardiography.

• M-mode echocardiography is use to evaluate the morphology of structures, movement and velocity of cardiac valves and walls and timing of cardiac events.
