Correction of concentrated and distributed aberrations in medical ultrasound imaging [PDF]
A method is presented for iterative correction of wave fields aberrated in a plane located at an arbitrary distance from an array transducer. The signals received from the transducer are processed by an inverse extrapolator in such a way that the output ...

FEA-Based Ultrasonic Focusing Method in Anisotropic Media for Phased Array Systems
Traditional ultrasonic imaging methods have a low accuracy in the localization of defects in austenitic welds because the anisotropy and inhomogeneity of the welds cause distortion of the ultrasonic wave propagation paths in anisotropic media.
