The main goal of the paper is to compare the image compounding methods to minimise the artefacts arising in the Multi-Angle Conventional Ultrasound Imaging (MACUI) due to the system configuration. The MACUI method used for 3-D object imaging and the introduced imaging artefacts are described. Different ways of the image compounding by intensity averaging are presented in the work. Implemented methods of image compounding were tested for different types of objects mimicking soft tissue. The comparison allowed to determine the most appropriate method of intensity averaging in the compounding method. The method can be used to reduce the presence of image artefacts and enhance the quality of the resulting slices which are used to create 3-D volume of an object structure in MACUI method.

The purpose of this work is to examine the possibility of using multi-angle conventional ultrasound B-mode scanning in efficient 3-D imaging. In the paper, the volume of an object is reconstructed from vertical projections registered at fixed angular positions of the multi-element linear ultrasonic probe rotated in relation to the object submerged in water. The possible configurations are: vertical lateral, vertical top or vertical bottom. In the vertical lateral configuration, the ultrasonic probe acquires 2-D images of object’s vertical cross-sections, turning around its lateral surface. In the vertical top or bottom configuration, the ultrasonic probe acquires 2-D images of the object’s vertical cross-sections, turning on the horizontal plane over the top or under the bottom surface of the object. The method of recording 3-D volume of an object’s structure and reconstruction algorithm have been designed. Studies show the method in the vertical top or bottom configuration could be successfully applied to the effective 3-D visualisation of the structure of the female breast in vivo as the new complement ultrasonic imaging modality in the prototype of the developed ultrasound tomography scanner.
