Abstract

A perfusion imaging processing method comprising collecting a plurality of digital images comprising sequential B-Mode micro-ultrasound reflectivity data, calculating decorrelation trends of autocorrelated data to determine blood flow and perfusion level, reducing the noise content in the data using the decorrelation trends, and/or forming a visual representation based on the decorrelation trends. The present system and method provides an ultrasonic imaging system and method which provides perfusion data without requiring the use of an injected contrast agent.
