Periodic motion algorithm for ultrasound imaging of the heartbeat

Summary
This technology describes an algorithm to measure the electrical activity of the heart using ultrasound imaging.
Technology Benefits
High-frame-rate imagingNon-invasive techniqueInexpensiveNot reliant on additional measurements of electrical activityAnalysis can be automated
Technology Application
Algorithm for electrical mapping of the heartHigh-frame-rate, non-invasive imaging test for heart arrhythmiasCan be used with ultrasound, magnetic resonance (MR), and computerized tomography (CT) imagingCould be extended to visualize activity in other moving tissues
