WELCOME FROM THE GENERAL CHAIR

F. Stuart Foster General Chair

Welcome to Vancouver! The 2006 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium will be held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada from October 3–6, 2006. The conference will be held at the Westin Bayshore Resort and Marina, situated in the heart of Coal Harbour, one of Vancouver’s most historical areas. It is a modern, very well-equipped conference centre that is perfectly suited for conferences like the Ultrasonics Symposium. Vancouver is a vibrant multicultural city nestled on the slopes of the majestic Coast Mountain range that form the northern edge of the metropolis, and are a major part of its spectacular views. It is a quintessential North American west coast city; beautiful, diverse, irreverent, and teeming with life. In addition to the natural splendour you’ll find many museums, art galleries, sports activities, and oases of tranquility within easy walking distance of the conference centre. Vancouver/Whistler is also the site of the 2010 Winter Olympics. The Ultrasonics Symposium is a great opportunity for a preview of the fun to come. Hope to meet you in Vancouver. Best regards, F. Stuart Foster General Chair

MESSAGE FROM THE TECHNICAL CHAIR

Geoff Lockwood Technical Chair

On behalf of the Technical Program Committee, it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the 2006 IEEE Ultrasonics Symposium. This year we had 889 abstract submissions from 47 countries. This is up very slightly from last year’s 876 submissions. The number of abstract submitted to group 1 (Medical Ultrasonics) grew significantly and now represents nearly 45% of the total number submitted. The general format of the meeting has been left unchanged from previous years with one day of short courses followed by three days of oral and poster presentations. However, to reflect the increased number of abstracts from group 1, two additional oral sessions for Medical Ultrasonics were added on October 5 and 6. We have also increased the number of posters by 20%, which allowed an increase in the acceptance rate to almost 80%. One of the hardest jobs for the Technical Program Committee was to select the finalists for the student paper award. After much discussion, the Technical Program Committee identified 18 finalists from a very strong pool of abstracts. The student finalist posters will only be displayed on the first day of conference (October 4), so make sure you set aside some time to see these posters. I have enjoyed serving as the Technical Chair for the 2006 Symposium and I look forward to meeting many of you in Vancouver. Best Regards, Geoff Lockwood 2006 IEEE Ultrasonics Symposium Technical Chair

SHORT COURSES 1A – Medical Ultrasound Transducers Douglas G. Wildes and L. Scott Smith General Electric Global Research, Niskayuna, NY, USA This course will provide an introduction to the design, fabrication, and testing of medical ultrasound transducers. Starting from an overview of the basic types of phased-array transducers (linear, convex, sector), we will discuss how the design for a probe is derived from its target application and how equivalent-circuit, finite-element, and acoustic field models can be used to optimize the design and accurately predict performance. A discussion of the structure of an ultrasound probe will lead to a survey of the different types of materials used in probes and their critical properties. Typical fabrication processes will be introduced and common problems in probe manufacturing will be summarized. Methods for evaluating completed transducers will be discussed. The course will highlight recent developments in probe technology, including single crystal piezoelectrics, cMUT transducers, catheters, multi-row and 2D arrays, and electronics in probes, and will discuss performance advantages and fabrication difficulties which may be associated with each. Douglas G. Wildes is a physicist with GE Global Research. He earned an A.B. in physics and mathematics from Dartmouth College and a Ph.D. in low-temperature physics from Cornell University, then joined GE in 1985. Since 1991, Dr. Wildes’ research has focused on aperture design, fabrication processes, and high-density interconnect technology for multi-row and 2D transducers for medical ultrasound.

The course will provide both a broad overview and comprehensive understanding of elasticity imaging, and, as such, the course is well suited for both newcomers and active researchers in the field. The course will be divided into several modules. Starting with a brief historical introduction to elasticity imaging, we will examine the foundation and basic principles of static and dynamic approaches in elasticity imaging (theory of elasticity including both the equation of equilibrium and the wave equation, mechanical properties of soft tissues, etc.). We will then discuss experimental aspects of elasticity imaging including imaging hardware, signal and image processing algorithms, etc. Speckle tracking methods will be introduced and analyzed. Techniques to map elasticity and other mechanical properties of tissue will be presented and discussed. In this part of the course, we will also analyze noise (sources) and primary artifacts, and discuss techniques to increase and optimize signal-to-noise ratio in strain and elasticity images. Finally, the ultrasound elasticity imaging techniques and their biomedical and clinical applications will be presented. Advantages and limitations of each approach will be discussed and contrasted with other elasticity imaging techniques such as MRI or optical elastography. Overall, similarities and differences between various elasticity imaging approaches will be discussed. The course will conclude with overview of several experimental and commercial systems capable of ultrasound elasticity imaging. Stanislav Emelianov received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in physics and acoustics in 1986 and 1989, respectively, from the Moscow State University, and the Ph.D. degree in physics in 1993 from Moscow State University, and the Institute of Mathematical Problems of Biology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Russia.

Surface acoustic wave devices, bulk acoustic wave devices, FBARs, MEMS and RF-MEMS will be considered and higher-order effects including the radiation of electromagnetic waves in these devices will be accounted for. Following a brief review of traditional design and simulation techniques we will discuss recently developed methods which are by construction extraordinarily flexible and at the same time promise to be accurate to a desired degree. Included are the so-called conservative finite difference method, finite volume method, this author’s fast boundary element method utilizing Universal Functions, wavelet-based techniques, the multiresolution analysis, the fast multilevel multipole expansion technique, genetic algorithms, evolutionary programming, Monte Carlo method, and finally schemes for software- and hardware implementation of fast algorithms. With a particular emphasis on the design and simulation of FBARs we will explain important notions of absorbing boundaries, infinite elements, radial functions and radial wavelets. Furthermore, we will consider the concept of non-orthogonal bases- and dual bases, and address the concept of over-completeness and investigate the construction and properties of frames, dual frames and related topics. The foregoing mathematical concepts will be complemented by introducing a number of physics-based localized analysis functions. Examples will include Wannier functions, coherent states and Green’s functions induced wavelets and wavelet-like functions. More specifically, simple recipes for the construction of Meyer, Daubechies, and B-spline wavelets and their application in microacoustic device modelling and simulation will be presented. All tools necessary to conveniently follow the discussion will be developed in the classroom. A comprehensive manuscript enriched by simple and illustrative examples will be provided to course participants.

Thomenius General Electric Global Research, Niskayuna, NY, USA A goal of this course is to review the design of ultrasound front ends and beamformers from a linear systems point of view. The approach used will include transduction, beamformation, acoustic wave propagation, and image formation functions. We will discuss several analytical methods used in developing the design of a typical beamformer in use in diagnostic ultrasound today. The key points to be covered deal with methods of analysis of arrays and beamformers, the interaction of transmit and receive beams with clinically relevant targets, and how this interaction is used in image formation. A brief overview of k-space methods will be given. The means by which these analytical methods contribute to a beamformer design and the trade-offs involved are reviewed. The techniques developed for such analysis will be applied to key topics of current interest such as system miniaturization, 2D arrays and improve spatial sampling of the acoustic fields, synthetic aperture techniques, and aberration correction. Due to successes in system miniaturization such as laptop-sized systems, ultrasound is becoming a candidate modality for new clinical application. We will discuss this development and its impact on beamformer design. Kai E. Thomenius is a Chief Technologist in the Imaging Technologies Organization at General Electric’s Global Research facility in Niskayuna, NY. His focus is on Ultrasound and Biomedical Engineering.

Prof. Khuri-Yakub has extensive patents and publications in the areas of thin film transducers, analog convolvers and correlators, acoustic microscopy, non-destructive evaluation, in-situ sensors, and micro-machined transducers and medical imaging. 2C - Nonlinear Acoustics and Harmonic Imaging Victor F. Humphrey Institute of Sound and Vibration Research (ISVR), University of Southampton, UK This course will provide an introduction to the origins of nonlinear propagation, and its consequences and applications in medical ultrasound. The first section will review the basic physics of nonlinear propagation, and discuss the propagation of plane waves as a means of introducing nonlinear acoustics terminology. This will be followed by a discussion of the techniques used to numerically model nonlinear propagation and the specific problems of performing measurements in high amplitude fields with their associated distortion and harmonic content. The effects of diffraction and attenuation on nonlinear propagation will then be introduced by considering the fields of transducers and arrays, and the fields they generate in tissue; this will be illustrated by a combination of experimental results and model predictions. This will lead on to a discussion of the consequences for medical ultrasound of nonlinear propagation. Finally the application to harmonic imaging will be described. Victor Humphrey is a Professor of Acoustics at the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research (ISVR) in Southampton, U.K. He received his B.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Bristol in 1975 and 1981 respectively. He then moved to the School of Physics at the University of Bath where was promoted to Senior Lecturer. In 2004 he took up his current position at ISVR. His initial research was in the area of laboratory applications of nonlinear parametric arrays in underwater acoustics. For this work he was awarded the Institute of Acoustics A.B. Wood Medal 1988.

Subsequently he helped to develop a research programme on the nonlinear propagation of ultrasound in medical fields that investigated these fields both numerically and experimentally. He was awarded the University of Bath Mary Tasker Award for excellence in teaching in 1995. 3A – Ultrasound Contrast Agents: Theory and Experimental Results Nico de Jong* and Michel Versluis+ *Erasmus MC Rotterdam, The Netherlands, +University of Twente Enschede, The Netherlands The course consists of six main topics: a) First an overview will be presented of the (clinical and pre-clinical available) contrast agents, including the properties and characteristics of the gas inside the bubble and the shell surrounding it. b) Models of the behavior of small bubbles in a ultrasound field will be discussed. Simple models based on a one dimensional mass-spring system and more complicated models including gas and shell properties. c) Experimental ultrasound methods for UCA will be presented for characterizing the bubbles in a UCA, like harmonic and subharmonic scattering, absorption and attenuation. Also the influence of ambient pressure, temperature and gas concentration will be discussed. d) Experimental optical methods for characterizing individual bubbles. e) Imaging methods for contrast agents, like fundamental, harmonic, subharmonic and superharmonic and multi-pulse methods like pulse inversion, power modulation etc. and new methods like chirp excitation. f) Ultrasound mediated drug delivery: Interaction between mammalian cells and ultrasound in the vicinity of bubbles will be discussed.

Michel Versluis is now a lecturer at the University of Twente, the Netherlands, in the Physics of Fluids group working on the experimental study of bubbles and jets in multiphase flows and granular flows. He also works on the use of microbubbles as a tool for medical diagnosis and therapy. Dr. Versluis teaches various courses in Fluid Mechanics, one of them focusing on the physics of bubbles. 3B – Finite Element Modeling for Ultrasound Applications Paul Reynolds and David Vaughn Weidlinger Associates, Los Altos, CA, USA The aim of this course is to educate the ultrasound expert in the important considerations with regards to the finite element modelling of ultrasound applications. The course will not go into details of the fundamental equations and physics of the problems, but rather the relative merits of the various approaches, leaving the audience free to consider the broader implications rather than the fine detail. By the end of the course, it is our intention that the attendees will have the basic information on finite element simulations, and several common but varied applications, with which to make informed decisions in regards to simulating their own particular problems, and therefore make best use of the resources available to them. The four main components will be: 1) Finite Element Basics: The first section will involve an introduction to the field of finite element modelling, in order to ensure that all participants are aware of the basic assumptions inherent in the various modelling approaches. 2) Wave Propagation: The second section will concentrate on the accurate modelling of wave propagation through various media. Initial consideration will be given to the simple, linear, elastic cases and then move to include the effects of long distance propagation, material discontinuities, frequency dependant attenuation, and non-linearity (such as is prominent in higher-harmonic imaging).

3) Ultrasound and Thermal Effects: The third section will consider the use of ultrasound to heat tissue, such as with HIFU. Appropriate and accurate calculation of thermal generation (sometimes called the Bioheat Equation) and its application as a load to a thermal model will be detailed, as will advantages and disadvantages of coupling the acoustic and thermal fields, and perfusion. Difficulties in predicting effects such as cavitation and thermal variation of mechanical properties will be analysed. 4) Nonlinear electrostatic transducers (CMUTs): Capacitive Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducers (cMUTs) form a significant part of ongoing research into ultrasonic devices, and we detail the modeling requirements imposed by these highly nonlinear electrostatic devices. Full nonlinearity, contact issues, and methods of efficient modeling will be discussed in detail. Paul Reynolds is an Associate with Weidlinger Associates Inc (WAI), developers of the PZFlex finite element modelling package. He obtained his Ph.D. in the Finite Element Analysis of Piezocomposite Devices from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, before joining WAI. Through his position as PZFlex manager, his work with both academia and industry on topics as diverse as medical imaging, medical therapeutics, SONAR, NDT, sensors and actuators has led to a broad knowledge of the modelling needs across the spectrum, and best practices to ensure efficient use of modeling resources. David Vaughan holds the position of Principal in the Applied Science Division of Weidlinger Associates, Inc. (WAI) and is Principal-In-Charge of WAI’s Mountain View, CA office. Mr. Vaughan has an M.S. degree in Aerospace Engineering from Texas A&M University. Mr. Vaughan has extensive experience in modeling and software development for solid mechanics and multi-physics related problems, including piezoelectric applications. He directs the development of the FLEX family of computational structural dynamics codes. 3C – Flow Measurements and Doppler Hans Torp Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway This course provides basic understanding of physical principles and signal processing methods for flow measurements and visualization; with emphasis on Doppler methods and blood flow applications. The course starts with an overview of currently used techniques for velocity estimation in pulsed and continuous wave Doppler and color flow imaging. Statistical models for the received signal, as well as commonly used velocity and flow estimators are developed. Several different simulation methods for ultrasound signals from moving blood and clutter signals will be discussed. This includes fast simulation methods, as well as full 3D point scatter models using spatial impulse response techniques or k-space analysis. Efficient simulation tools to explore estimator properties are derived, and examples on implementation in Matlab will be shown. Methods to suppress clutter signals from slowly moving targets, including regression filter will be discussed. Elements from classical estimation theory will be applied to develop minimum variance velocity estimators in the presence of clutter noise. The performance will be compared with commonly used approaches for clutter rejection and velocity estimation, and practical implementations will be discussed. Velocity components transversal to the ultrasound beam can not be measured by Doppler techniques. However, several approaches to overcome this limitation has been proposed, including speckle tracking, transit time measurements, and lateral beam modulation. Principles and practical limitations will be discussed. Methods for visualisation of 2D vector flow information will be shown. Hans Torp received the M.S. degree in mathematics in 1978, and the Dr. Techn. degree in electrical engineering in 1992; both from the University of Trondheim, Norway. Since 1980 he has been working with ultrasound technology applied to blood flow measurements and imaging at the University of Trondheim, in cooperation with GE-Vingmed Ultrasound. He is currently professor of medical technology at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, and has since 1987 given courses on ultrasound imaging and blood flow measurements for students in electrical engineering and biophysics. His research interests include statistical signal- and image-processing with applications in medical ultrasound imaging.

PLENARY SESSION

“Whales and Sonar” Kenneth C. Balcomb, III

PO Box 1577 Friday Harbor, WA 98250 orcasurv@rockisland.com

Kenneth C. Balcomb, III started Orca Survey in 1976. He has been the Executive Director and Research Biologist for the Center for Whale Research since 1985. He is one of a very few marine mammal scientists with military experience and background in anatomy, acoustics, ecology, and long-term studies of free-ranging cetaceans. Ken founded the Center for Whale Research in Friday Harbor, WA in 1985 and serves as its senior scientist and Executive Director. Ken also co-founded the Bahamas Marine Mammal Survey to benignly study whales and dolphins in the Bahamas archipelago employing photo-identification methods. The Bahamas study has yielded new information on the behavior and demographics of beaked whales and it has developed a novel (totally benign) technique of obtaining samples for molecular genetic studies. In March 2000, Ken had the most phenomenal whale experience of his life when many beaked whales in his study population stranded near his Bahamas field station following a U.S Navy sonar exercise. The specimens he quickly collected provided the first evidence of pressure traumas that can be “caused” by sonar, although the precise mechanism for damage is still unknown. Ken has authored or co-authored more than thirty published research papers and five books based upon his experience in whale research. He is one of the pioneers of the photo-identification methods and other non-invasive studies of cetaceans, and one of a very few marine mammal scientists with military experience and background in anatomy, acoustics, ecology, and long-term studies of free-ranging cetaceans.
