Abstract
A program for the simulation of ultrasound systems is presented.It
is based on the Tupholme-Stepanishen method, and is fastbecause of
the use of a far-field approximation. Any kind oftransducer
geometry and excitation can be simulated, and bothpulse-echo and
continuous wave fields can be calculated for bothtransmit and
pulse-echo. Dynamic apodization and focusing arehandled through
time lines, and different focusingschemes can be simulated. The
versatility of the program isensured by interfacing it to Matlab.
All routines are calleddirectly from Matlab, and all Matlab
features can be used. Thismakes it possible to simulate all types
of ultrasound imaging systems.
