A Nonlinear Beamformer Based on p-th Root Compression—Application to Plane Wave Ultrasound Imaging

Ultrafast medical ultrasound imaging is necessary for 3D and 4D ultrasound imaging, and it can also achieve high temporal resolution (thousands of frames per second) for monitoring of transient biological phenomena. However, reaching such frame rates involves reduction of image quality compared with...
