Abstract

A Doppler ultrasound clutter suppression system and method in which the clutter is first low-pass filtered (716) to suppress the flow component (4024) just before mean frequency estimation (718). The mean frequency is then estimated and mixed with the original clutter data which is positioned at DC. The low-pass filter bandwidth is predetermined based on the particular application and imaging parameters. The signal is then high-pass filtered (726) to remove the clutter component (4022).
