- Developed a new whole cross-sectional ultrasound tomography system for human imaging.
- Uses a 512-element circular receiver array and rotating transmitter for reflection and transmission modes.
- Achieves uniform in-plane resolution for abdomen and thigh images comparable to clinical MRI.
- Enables adipose thickness assessment without ionizing radiation or tissue deformation.
- Allows video-rate biopsy needle localization relative to internal tissue structures.
