Abstract
Systems and methods for a multi-mode rolling-encoded ultrasound are described. These systems and methods include an ultrasound device that provides an encoded ultrasound signal, which includes one or more multi-mode waveforms that contain multiple mode types, multiple variants from a single mode type, or a mixture of such. The encoded ultrasound signals are used to image or otherwise gather information from a target during an ultrasound scan, such as a portion of a patient anatomy. The reflected encoded signals are received and decoded, resulting in an increased resolution and frame rate. This allows for more-efficient operation and resource utilization.
