| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a board for a synthetic aperture ultrasound imaging apparatus which includes an analog to digital converter converting M analog channel data into M digital channel data; a partial beamformer unit including N partial beamformers generating N partial beams from the M digital channel data; and an adder adding a partial beam stored in a k-th synthetic aperture memory among a plurality of synthetic aperture memories and a partial beam outputted from a k+1-th partial beamformer to input the added partial beam to a k+1-th synthetic aperture memory. The present invention can facilitate an increase in the number of channels by adding a board without transmitting a lot of channel data between boards by exchanging and synthesizing a part of the scanline data between the boards at rear ends of the boards. |
