25
- The data set consists of clinical ultrasound channel data acquired
26
- with a Verasonics Vantage 128 system and an L11-5v linear array probe, imaging
27
- the thyroid gland of 30 adult healthy volunteers. The scans were carried out by a senior radiologist
28
- who specializes in ultrasound thyroid imaging. The purpose of the scans is to provide a complete set of channel data of a thyroid gland scan of the full anatomy.

- where they were confirmed constant.
136
- - The default beamforming grid in `pipeline.yaml` (`grid_size_x=300`,
137
- `grid_size_z=400`) is coarser than the half-wavelength Nyquist rate for
138
- this probe/frequency; this only affects the resolution of the example
139
- reconstruction images, not the released raw channel data.
140
- - The number of frames for each subject is variable, depending on the subject's
141
- anatomy and the radiologist's scanning protocol. It may also be affected by
142
- bottlenecks in the Verasonics system's data transfer rate,
143
- which can cause "dropped frames" when the system cannot keep up with the
144
- acquisition speed.

146
  ## Ethical Considerations
147
 
148
- This acquisition was performed under an IRB-approved research protocol,
149
- with informed consent obtained from the subject prior to scanning. The
150
- subjects are identified only by a de-identified code with no directly
151
- identifying information (name, exact date of birth, medical record number)
152
- stored in the released file. No `acquisition_time` timestamp is embedded in
153
- the zea file, consistent with HIPAA Safe Harbor de-identification guidance
154
- for human-subject data.

51

52
+ The acquisitions can be processed with the `reconstruct.py` [script](https://github.com/open-h/OpenH-RF/blob/main/datasets/weizmann-sampl/reconstruct.py) as provided in the [OpenH-RF GitHub repository](https://github.com/open-h/OpenH-RF), together with the `pipeline.yaml` definition in this folder and the [zea library](https://github.com/tue-bmd/zea). The script streams the data from the Hugging Face Hub.
53
+
54
+ Set `ZEA_FILE` and `FRAME` at the top of the script to pick a scan and frame; setting `ZEA_FILE = None` switches to the grid modes that sample several scans (see the script docstring).
