Abstract
An image processing method is provided. The image processing method includes the following steps. A plurality of raw signal is received by a signal transceiving module of the ultrasound imaging system. It is determined whether each of the raw signals satisfies any condition in a condition group, and the raw signal satisfying any condition in the condition group is mapped to one of a plurality of preset constants to generate a plurality of first data. The raw signals not satisfying any condition in the condition group are processed according to a calculation formula to generate a plurality of second data. A beamforming procedure is simultaneously performed on the first and second data to obtain a beamformed image. The beamformed image is transformed to obtain an image of a region to be detected. Furthermore, an imaging system using the foregoing image processing method is also provided.
