Chapter 4: System Overview About the System The SonoSite Edge high-resolution ultrasound system is a portable, full featured, general purpose, software controlled, diagnostic ultrasound system using all digital architecture. The system is used to acquire and display high-resolution, real-time ultrasound data in 2D, M Mode, Pulsed Wave (PW) Doppler, Continuous Wave (CW) Doppler, Color Power Doppler (CPD), and color Doppler (Color) or in a combination of these modes.
Theory of Operation The Edge ultrasound system has seven (7) major functional groups: • • • • • • • Transducer Acquisition Subsystem Processing Subsystem Display Subsystem Control Subsystem User Interface Subsystem Power Subsystem is a system block diagram that shows the relationship of the functional groups.
The Display Subsystem converts the detected ultrasound data into picture elements (pixels). The software user interface graphics are combined with the ultrasound information and converted to a video stream. The external video port supports NTSC and PAL format. The Control Subsystem consists of the central processing unit, program and video memory, permanent image storage and retrieval memory, external communication interface ports, and connection to the user interface keys.
Color Doppler (Color) In color Doppler, a real-time, two-dimensional cross-section of blood flow is displayed. The 2D cross-section may be presented as a rectangle, parallelogram, trapezoid, sector, or a full circle, depending on the particular transducer used. The 2D cross-section is presented as a full color display, with various colors being used to represent the velocity, both positive and negative, of the blood flow echoes.
Pulsed Wave (PW) Doppler PW provides a real-time representation of blood flow and is displayed as a velocity-versus-time sweeping output. Velocity (or frequency) is presented as the vertical axis with time along the horizontal axis. The magnitude of the detected signal is represented as different gray scale values. The ultrasound data is derived from a single area, the sample volume, on a stationary beam.
Continuous Wave Doppler Audio Output The system provides for audio output of the CW velocity information. This can be presented as stereo information, with flow moving towards the transducer on one channel and flow away on the other, or as a mono output with the single audio output representing the summation of the flow directions. Pulsed Wave Doppler Audio Output The system provides for audio output of the PW velocity information.
The number of elements driven is determined by element sensitivity off axis and depth of field considerations. The waveform is selected to drive the transducer at a certain center frequency, bandwidth, and power and is optimized for the given mode.
PW Doppler Processing Doppler processing includes both audio processing which presents Doppler signal in the form of stereo audio and spectral processing which generates data for display of Doppler spectrum in the form of a scrolling spectrogram. Doppler power spectrum is estimated performing Discrete Fourier Transforms on short, overlapped segments of wall filtered Doppler signal. Doppler audio data is generated from wall filtered data by phase shifting the in-phase component.
CW Doppler Processing CW Doppler data will be presented to the signal processor as complex (I/Q) data from the analog front end of the external DSP. The 16-bit data will be presented as consecutive samples at a data rate varying from 1.5 kHz to 64 kHz for the complex pair. Most of CW processing is similar to that of PW except for the QBP function. In place of QBP will be a low pass decimating filter that operates on incoming I/Q data.
Back End Overview The Back End subsystem is responsible for the conversion of raw acquisition data into a raster image ready for display. The Back End subsystem also contains the video data path that supports generation of video comprising of the ultrasound image as well as graphics annotation. Video generation of both standard composite interlaced video and progressive scan video is supported.
Control Subsystem The Edge Control Subsystem is shown in the figure below. INFRASTRUCTURE SYSPWR, SYSCLKS, SYSRST MASS STORAGE EXPANSION FAST ETHERNET ETHERNET SYSTEM FLASH SYSTEM RAM PCI BUS 2 DUAL UART, USB PCI BRIDGE U/I, DEBUG USB DATA ADDRESS CONTROL SYSTEM BUS SYSTEM TIMERS DMA FLOATING POINT IIC CONTROLLER SH CONTROL SH MUX CONTROL SH BUS cache INTERRUPTS PROCESSOR JTAG 8 GPIO SCANHEAD ULTRASOUND DATA PATH VIDEO AUDIO ECG IIC BUS DATA CONTROL Figure 4.
Power Supply and Control The Edge Power Supply and Control System consists of an easily replaced rechargeable battery pack; an On/Off Key; a standby power regulator; digital, analog, display and transducer power supplies; a power monitor and a power control system. Operating current is drawn from the battery or an external AC/DC Adapter which also contains circuitry for charging the battery. A fan and provision for a temperature sensor are also included. Figure 4.
Battery Pack (VBAT) A rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack will be used to operate the unit in battery mode. The pack will include a capacity monitoring circuit and any required pack protection circuitry. A one-wire, bidirectional, serial interface (BDATA) will be used to read and write the pack data. Battery Charger The charge circuitry is in the external AC/DC Adapter as shown in the following block diagram.
ECG Module The ECG module allows a representation of the heart electrical activity to be displayed in real time with ultrasound images acquired and displayed on the system video display. The ECG module interfaces to the patient through three (3) ECG leads: Right Arm ECG lead (RA), Left Arm ECG lead (LA), and Left Leg ECG lead (LL). The ECG received signal from the ECG electrodes are isolated, amplified, and filtered by the ECG module before it is sent to the system for further processing and display.
