Human brain ultrasound-mediated diagnosis in emergency medicine and home health care

This paper describes human brain ultrasound-mediated diagnosis in emergency medicine and home health care. The ultrasonic equipment has many advantages, for example, the very simple operation to touch to the body surface diagnosis enables real-time visual recognition for heart beat and unborn baby moving, and so on. The ultrasonic diagnosis is safety to human body and many repetitions. The goal of our research is the portable and real time brain diagnosis under the thick-skull. In our experiment, we employ two ultrasonic array probes with the center frequency of 1.0MHz and 0.5MHz. The choice of ultrasonic frequency is a trade-off between spatial resolution of the image and imaging depth. We perform the experiment with a cow scapula as a skull and a steel sulcus as a lateral cerebral sulcus. As the results, the synthesized image in Wavelet transform has higher efficiency than the other synthesizing on the images for the bone and the sulcus.
