Abstract
An ultrasound system includes an ultrasound scanner configured to transmit ultrasound at a patient anatomy and receive reflections of the ultrasound from the patient anatomy. The ultrasound system includes an ultrasound machine configured to generate received data including ultrasound data based on the reflections of the ultrasound and artifact data based on an interferer. The ultrasound system includes a processor system that is implemented to determine an artifact signal that is based on the interferer, determine, based on the artifact signal, one or more artifact characteristics. In some embodiments, the artifact characteristics are selected from the group consisting of an amplitude, a phase, a center frequency, and a bandwidth. The processor system is implemented to generate, based on the artifact characteristics, filter coefficients, and filter, based on the filter coefficients, the received data to suppress the artifact data and recover the ultrasound data.
