Tutorials

The URI Offline Processing Tools (URI-OPT) provides Matlab-based non-proprietary programs for reading and processing RF data acquired from a URI-equipped Antares system.

URI-OPT is developed by Jerome Mai at UC Davis, in collaboration with Siemens and Duke University.

Here you will find examples and tutorials on how to use URI-OPT for the display of different imaging modes.
Please first follow the instructions in the downloads page and install the URI-OPT so you can run the programs on your own computer.

B-Mode: 2D grayscale images of log-compressed envelop of RF.

2D Color Doppler: 2D color-coded velocity profile mapped on B-Mode images.

More Color Doppler: examples of Color Doppler display using different parameters.

Scan conversion: Scan-converting rectangular images into sector or parallelogram display.

M-mode: time variation of the grayscale intensity of an axial line.

Spectral Doppler: displays of Doppler spectrum as a function of time vs. velocity of data acquired along an axial segment.

Misc. Functions: other useful tools in URI-OPT not specific to one imaging mode.
