摘要
Abstract Ultrasound computed tomography (USCT) imaging with a ring array holds significant potential for the inspection of small animals, breast tissue, and industrial components. Despite its promise, current techniques face challenges in terms of image quality. This paper presents a multi-mode aperture matching method for USCT image reconstruction with a ring array, aiming to enhance imaging performance. The proposed method utilizes a full ring transducer to transmit signals with a designated sub-aperture, while the receiving sub-aperture is adjusted based on the reference center element. By altering the transmitting and receiving sub-apertures under different conditions, specific imaging effects can be achieved. Experimental validation was conducted using a hair strand of 0.03 mm diameter placed at both center and eccentric positions within the ring array, in conjunction a breast phantom. Image resolution and contrast were assessed using full width at half maximum and contrast-to-noise ratio metrics. The results identified optimal transmitting and receiving sub-aperture matching modes for imaging the hair strand at various positions, and demonstrated the impact of this method on imaging targets at different positions within the breast phantom. These findings and experimental validations provide significant implications for enhancing imaging performance in USCT with a ring array.
