Handbook of Speckle Filtering and Tracking in Cardiovascular Ultrasound Imaging and Video — Recommend this title to your library

Thank you

Your recommendation has been sent to your librarian.

This chapter is focused on the image registration techniques that estimate the motion and strain by tracking the speckle pattern directly from the intensity of the B-mode US images assuming a temporal relationship between images. The fixed and moving images are noted as It and It-1 with t meaning a specific time.
