Polarity detection in ultrasound current source density imaging.
Modulating the electric dipole field with ultrasound pulse, ultrasound current source density imaging (UCSDI) can detect current direction and form spatial 3D imaging of dipole changing in one period of treatment. As ultrasound pulse passes through the conductive media, it convolves/correlates with the inner product of the electric field of a dipole and lead field of a pair of detectors, making the shifting frequency of polarity lower than the center frequency of the ultrasound pulse. After acoustoelectric (AE) signal is shifted to base band, the AE voltage is positive at anode and negative at cathode. In the simulation, the lead fields of detectors and electric field of dipole were calculated by the finite element (FE) method; the convolution and correlation in the computation of AE signal were accelerated using 3-D fast Fourier transforms. The current direction and amplitude are encoded in the phase and amplitude of the AE signal. Based on the analysis of polarity algorithms on the simulated and in-vitro ultrasound current source density images, it is concluded that the cross-correlation method is significantly better than the autocorrelation method to extract the frequency shift for high pulse bandwidth.
