International Summer School on
Advanced Ultrasound Imaging
Technical University of Denmark
May 24 to June 2, 2023
Welcome to the Summer School on Advanced Ultrasound Imaging, which will
be held at the Technical University of Denmark from Wednesday May 24 to
Friday June 2, 2023.
News: January 3, 2023: The web-site for the summer school has
now been updated. The program for the school will soon be posted at: schedule.html.
The summer school is organized by professor Jørgen Arendt Jensen
at the Center
for Fast Ultrasound Imaging at the Department
of Health Technology, Technical
University of Denmark. A number of guest lectures will be added to the program soon.
The aim is to give a hands-on introduction to advanced ultrasound imaging and
its theoretical and practical basis. The topics for this summer school will be
advanced ultrasound methods including Synthetic Aperture imaging for anatomic, flow, functional and super resolution
imaging. Imaging in both 2-D with ordinary arrays and in 3-D with row-column arrays will be described.
The attendants will have the possibility of acquiring data using Verasonics scanners and use
this in their project conducted during the summer school.
This curriculum includes the concepts of linear acoustic systems,
spatial impulse responses, simulation, signal processing, contrast agents and advanced imaging. The course consists
of a set of lectures given by international experts in ultrasound synthetic aperture imaging in 2-D and 3-D, cMUT
and row-column probes, contrast agents, super resolution imaging and signal processing coupled with exercises and project work.
During the course you will have the ability of both working with simulated
as well as measured data from Verasonics scanners acquired using
synthetic aperture imaging in both 2-D and 3-D. This will include both anatomic (B-mode)
and flow data
You can obtain 2.5 ECTS points for the course.
The exercises uses Matlab and the
Field II program for the
simulation of ultrasound imaging systems. It is suggested that you bring your own
laptop with the two programs installed.
Registration for the summer school cost 1000 euro (7,500 d.kr.), and the registration deadline is
May 1, 2023.
