On the morning of December 27, the International Joint ResearchCenterof Robotics and IntelligenceSystem launched a new international academic exchange activity. Professor Dong Chyuan Liu, a foreign Professor of Sichuan University, an international computational numerical optimization expert, was invited to give an academic report to the teachers and students. The theme of this lecture is "Software-driven Image Processing and Analysis -- case study: embedded real-time ultrasound systems " with highlights including system architecture, frequency-domain image processing, temporal-spatial domain image processing, and image processing & analysis.

Lecture scene

In this lecture, Professor Liu introduced some of his new scientific discoveries: With the help of powerful GPU parallel processing, we will do frequency-domain image processing to remove ultrasound artifact coming from low-channels ultrasound signals and from standard ceramic transducers. In the area of temporal-spatial domain image processing, we present a novel image visualization technique of perfusion flow direction of cervical lymph nodes based on contrast-enhanced ultrasound.
