摘要
A digital filtering technique has been developed for enhancement of two-dimensional ultrasonic images of the heart. The filtering is applied to the lateral axis normal to the direction of scanlines. The enhancement results from both filtering off-axis artifacts and interpolation within the scanning plane. Simple filters of this design have been implemented which significantly increase the quality of images. Theoretical considerations for development of such filters is also discussed. © 1979.
