Abstract

The invention relates to a method for extracting a color ultrasound parametric blood flow signal based on a relaxation algorithm, and aims to solve the problem of poor accuracy of blood flow signal extraction since the energy ratio of a noise signal and a blood flow signal included in an ultrasonic echo signal is possibly as high as 40dB due to higher scattering intensity of soft tissues than red blood cells. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring a blood flow signal by using a color ultrasound detector, and transmitting to a signal receiving end; establishing an affine model for the received ultrasonic echo signal by using the signal receiving end, and estimating an affine model parameter by adopting the relaxation algorithm to obtain the frequency and amplitude of the blood flow signal. The method is suitable for the technical field of ultrasound color blood flow imaging, and is applied to the researches of various cardiovascular diseases.

α=[α 1 α 2…α k… α K] (5)
Based on the affine model set up, the computational problem of the Doppler frequency of blood flow signal just transforms in order to a Parameter Estimation Problem.Namely exist european norm under, K parameter group parameter { f k, α k, k=1 ..., the estimated result of K} can be solved by following Optimized model, as
{ f ^ k , α ^ k } k = 1 K = arg min { f k , α k } k = 1 k | | x - Pα | | 2 - - - ( 6 )

During the optimization problem described in solution formula (5), first do not consider the frequency of main constituent and concentrate consideration amplitude vecotr α.When namely supposing that P is known, obtain the least square solution of amplitude vecotr α,
α ^ = ( P H P ) - 1 P H x - - - ( 7 )
Then, utilization obtains amplitude vecotr α by following object function calculated rate vector f=[f 1f 2f k] tas
{ f k } k = 1 K = arg min { f k } k = 1 K | | ( I - P ( P H P ) - 1 P H ) x | | 2 - - - ( 8 )
Wherein I is unit matrix.

Known in the present embodiment
The difference of the colorful ultrasonic parametrization blood flow signal extracting method based on relaxed algorithm described in detailed description of the invention five, present embodiment and detailed description of the invention three is, the detailed process of frequency and amplitude that the frequency according to second main constituent described in step B and amplitude upgrade first main constituent is conversely: according to the x obtained 2obtained by formula (9) and (10) with
The difference of the colorful ultrasonic parametrization blood flow signal extracting method based on relaxed algorithm described in detailed description of the invention six, present embodiment and detailed description of the invention three is, the detailed process whether frequency judging two main constituents described in step C is stable is: by estimated value with estimated value do difference, judge whether the absolute value of the difference obtained is less than or equal to 10 -3if the frequency being less than or equal to expression two main constituents is stablized, if the frequency being greater than expression two main constituents is unstable.
Concrete example:
Utilize Doppler to cover the simulate signal of synthesis, wherein clutter composition has the characteristic of rather low-frequency, but the energy of signal is better than blood flow signal and thermal noise far away.Blood flow signal has the characteristic of relative high frequency, although the energy of signal is starkly lower than clutter composition, but is better than thermal noise.Noise is the low-yield composition of a Whole frequency band, can represent in emulation with white Gaussian noise.
In order to verify the extensive adaptability of proposed method, fixing some parameters in emulation, and allowing it change for interested especially parameter.Table 1 lists the parameter and their numerical value that emulate and use.Table 1 represents experiment parameter.
Table 1
In emulation and in discussing, the ultimate unit of all numerical value relevant with frequency is orientated as impulse ejection frequency (Pulse repetition frequency, PRF) by mark.In emulation, the mid frequency of clutter is 0.1PRF.And blood flow mid frequency changes from 0.05PRF to 0.5PRF, be spaced apart 0.025PRF.For meeting ultra sonic imaging requirement of real-time, its clutter filtration result respectively under 16 pulse periods of all tests.In addition, for eliminating systematic error, to each group simulation parameter, 1024 emulation is carried out.
The present invention and popular two kinds of parameterized blood flow signal methods of estimation: second-order autoregressive model and the second order multiple signal classification based on extraction of root compare, and result is shown in Fig. 2 to Fig. 5.Can find, the present invention shows estimated result accurately under the Doppler of blood flow signal is lower than all situations of 0.45PRF.
This is because first relaxed algorithm estimates signal frequency from input signal, because noise intensity is very large, this signal frequency is approximately clutter mid frequency; Then, the Doppler frequency of blood flow signal is estimated from residual signal, described in algorithm steps A as described.And the blood flow signal parameter estimated is applied to the parameter upgrading clutter composition conversely, as shown in stepb.This process is repeated, until the Doppler frequency of blood flow signal and clutter keeps stable, i.e. between the double estimated value of step C demand, gap is lower than 10 -3pRF.That now calculate the clutter of estimation and blood flow signal with signal and input signal energy Ratios, due to the existence of white noise, now proceed to the parameter of estimation the 3rd main constituent, namely return step 2.Step before repetition, until the frequency of three main constituents is stablized, as shown in Step D.Finally, as described in step e, Doppler frequency corresponding to the second largest main constituent of selection intensity parameter is that the Doppler frequency of blood flow signal exports.
From foregoing, accurately estimate that the parameter of clutter will comprise less clutter composition by causing in residual signal, thus improve the Parameter Estimation Precision of blood flow signal.Conversely, estimate that the parameter of blood flow signal will promote clutter Parameter Estimation Precision exactly.These two kinds of advantages are superposed repeatedly until the parameter estimated tends towards stability.Final result shows, the method for parameter estimation of this antithesis of the present invention achieves the accurate estimation of clutter and blood flow signal parameter simultaneously, especially, when the Doppler frequency of blood flow signal and clutter composition mid frequency relatively close to time, estimation effect of the present invention is obviously better than other two kinds parameterized blood flow signal extracting method.
