The feasibility of three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound imaging methods that involve computations depends on the performance of a computing system, which requires high-speed image reconstruction. Therefore, we examine the hardware (HW) implementation of the algorithm utilizing a field-programmable-gate-array (FPGA). Subsequently, we analyze the critical path delay of the HW and reduce the delay by modifying the architecture using FPGA resources to increase the maximum frequency.
This paper presents a HW implementation approach for performing 3D ultrasound imaging.
