## Beamforming and Processing
|
| 142 |

| 143 |
-
1. **Pre-Filtering:**
|
| 144 |
-
|
| 145 |
-
2. **GPU-Accelerated Beamforming (DAS):**
|
| 146 |
-
Beamforming is carried out via a GPU-accelerated Delay-and-Sum (DAS) module.
|
| 147 |
- **Aperture & Apodization:** 128-element Hanning window apodization and an F-number of 1.5.
|
| 148 |
- **Dual Angle-Compounding:** Beamforming for B-mode and power Doppler is performed twice with opposite receive angles ($+15^{\circ}$ and $-15^{\circ}$). The final high-resolution beamformed image (HRI) is the average of these two acquisitions:
|
| 149 |
$$HRI = \frac{HRI_{+15^{\circ}} + HRI_{-15^{\circ}}}{2}$$
|
| 150 |
- **Reconstruction Grid:** Cartesian coordinates mapped by a `PixelMap` representing a lateral range of $[-19, 19]\text{ mm}$ and axial depth of $[10, 60]\text{ mm}$ at $0.1\text{ mm}$ spatial resolution.
|
| 151 |

- Color Doppler map is selected as the first of these (Tx: -10, Rx = -10)
|
| 160 |
-
5. **Vector Doppler Velocity Estimation:**
|
| 161 |
-
Lateral ($v_x$) and axial ($v_z$) velocity components are computed from the multi-angle Doppler frequency estimates using GPU-accelerated least-squares estimation.
|
| 162 |
-
Lateral ($v_x$) and axial ($v_z$) dealiased velocity components are computed from the multi-angle Doppler frequency estimates using GPU-accelerated extended least-squares estimation.

-
The full LITMUS processing pipeline (GPU DAS beamforming + multi-angle vector
|

Doppler) is documented in [`convert.py`](convert.py). That script is included for
|
| 166 |
-
provenance and reproducibility; it depends on the LITMUS core Python package and

-
the raw acquisition frames, so it is not runnable from this folder alone.

[`pipeline.yaml`](pipeline.yaml) as a shareable recipe. Comparing the
|
| 184 |
-
reconstruction against the stored (LITMUS) B-mode is a sanity check that the

helper reproduced inside `reconstruct.py` from the LITMUS core Python package

(`litmus.core_py.visualization`), so the script has no dependency on the full

## Intended Usage
|
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
+
Developing, benchmarking, and evaluating methods for ultrasound image reconstruction, motion estimation, clutter filtering, multi-angle Doppler processing, and vector flow imaging (VFI) in venous imaging.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
## Dataset Characterization
|
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
- **Data Collection Method:** In vivo imaging of human femoral veins.
|
| 59 |
- **Labeling Method:** Label contains target vessel (Anatomy), view direction (Longitudinal), and physiological condition (Contraction + head up tilt).
|
| 60 |
+
- **Acquisition system:** Raw RF data was acquired from programmable research scanners (US4R, US4US, Warsaw, Poland) equipped with an AL2442 linear array transducer.
|
| 61 |
+
|
| 62 |
+
## Processing the Dataset
|
| 63 |
+
|
| 64 |
+
The acquisitions can be processed with the `pipeline.yaml` definition in this folder and the [zea library](https://github.com/tue-bmd/zea).
|
| 65 |
+
|
| 66 |
+
`zea` streams the data from the Hugging Face Hub and processes it according to the pipeline. You can try it out with the following command:
|
| 67 |
+
|
| 68 |
+
```bash
|
| 69 |
+
zea process \
|
| 70 |
+
--dataset hf://nvidia/OpenH-RF/waterloo-femoralvein/data/Acq0.hdf5 \
|
| 71 |
+
--config hf://nvidia/OpenH-RF/waterloo-femoralvein/pipeline.yaml \
|
| 72 |
+
--n-frames 1 \
|
| 73 |
+
--save-as png
|
| 74 |
+
```
|
| 75 |
+
|
| 76 |
+
Alternatively, you can use the `reconstruct.py` [script](https://github.com/open-h/OpenH-RF/blob/main/datasets/waterloo-femoralvein/reconstruct.py) as provided in the [OpenH-RF GitHub repository](https://github.com/open-h/OpenH-RF).
|
| 77 |
+
|
| 78 |
+
Swap `--n-frames 1 --save-as png` for `--save-as gif` to get the cine loop. In the script, `ZEA_FILE`, `FRAME`, `POWER_THRESHOLD` (the power-Doppler mask threshold, in dB), `VMAX` (velocity colour-scale maximum) and `NO_DEALIAS` at the top select what is reconstructed and overlaid.

**Current OpenH-RF release:** 15 HDF5 files; 941.96 GB (941,958,804,227 bytes) stored; root `zea_version` **0.1.5**. Sizes include all HDF5 contents and use decimal units (MB = 10^6 bytes, GB = 10^9 bytes, TB = 10^12 bytes), not decoded-array memory or original-source download sizes.

Data was collected from 15 participants and consists of 15 acquisitions (one per participant), containing 12,000 frames of raw RF data per acquisition. Each participant performed isometric plantarflexion contractions at 8 Kg under head up tilt of 40 degrees. Each femoral vein acquisition comprises 2 steered plane-wave transmits (`n_tx = 2`), 2048/3072 axial samples, and 192 receive channels.

## Beamforming and Processing
|
| 139 |
|
| 140 |
+
1. **Pre-Filtering:** Channel RF data is pre-filtered to remove hardware artifacts and out-of-band noise using a 5 MHz bandpass filter before beamforming.
|
| 141 |
+
2. **GPU-Accelerated Beamforming (DAS):** Beamforming is carried out via a GPU-accelerated Delay-and-Sum (DAS) module.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 142 |
- **Aperture & Apodization:** 128-element Hanning window apodization and an F-number of 1.5.
|
| 143 |
- **Dual Angle-Compounding:** Beamforming for B-mode and power Doppler is performed twice with opposite receive angles ($+15^{\circ}$ and $-15^{\circ}$). The final high-resolution beamformed image (HRI) is the average of these two acquisitions:
|
| 144 |
$$HRI = \frac{HRI_{+15^{\circ}} + HRI_{-15^{\circ}}}{2}$$
|
| 145 |
- **Reconstruction Grid:** Cartesian coordinates mapped by a `PixelMap` representing a lateral range of $[-19, 19]\text{ mm}$ and axial depth of $[10, 60]\text{ mm}$ at $0.1\text{ mm}$ spatial resolution.
|
| 146 |
+
3. **Clutter Filtering:** Clutter filtering is performed on the beamformed ensemble using a high-pass wall filter (normalized cut-off frequencies of 0.05 and 0.1, attenuation of 100 dB).
|
| 147 |
+
4. **Multi-Angle Doppler Frequency Estimation:** Angle-specific Doppler frequencies are computed using an ensemble size of 64 frames with a step size of 1.
|
| 148 |
+
- For conventional vector velocity estimation, we used the following Tx-Rx angles: Tx: [-10°, -10°, 10°, 10°]; Rx: [-10°, 10°, -10°, 10°]
|
| 149 |
+
- For dealiased vector velocity estimation, we used the following Tx-Rx angles: Tx: [-10°, -10°, -10°,-10°, 10°, 10°]; Rx: [-10°, -3°, 6°, 10°, -6°, 3°,10°]
|
| 150 |
+
- Color Doppler map is selected as the first of these (Tx: -10°, Rx = -10°)
|
| 151 |
+
5. **Vector Doppler Velocity Estimation:** Lateral ($v_x$) and axial ($v_z$) velocity components are computed from the multi-angle Doppler frequency estimates using GPU-accelerated least-squares estimation. Lateral ($v_x$) and axial ($v_z$) dealiased velocity components are computed from the multi-angle Doppler frequency estimates using GPU-accelerated extended least-squares estimation.

The full LITMUS processing pipeline (GPU DAS beamforming + multi-angle vector Doppler) is documented by the contributors. That documentation is provided for provenance and reproducibility; it depends on the LITMUS core Python package and the raw acquisition frames, so it is not runnable from this folder alone.

## Data Validation

`reconstruct.py` builds a `zea.Pipeline` of DAS beamforming → envelope detection → normalization → log-compression **in code** and reconstructs a B-mode directly from `raw_data`, showing the raw-to-image flow without any config file. It also saves the pipeline to `pipeline.yaml` as a shareable recipe. Comparing the reconstruction against the stored (LITMUS) B-mode is a sanity check that the acquisition parameters and probe geometry are recorded correctly, and serves as a reproducible reference reconstruction.

When the vector-flow fields (`vector_velocity_x/z`/`vector_velocity_x/z_deal` + `power_doppler`) are present, the vector velocity field is overlayed on the stored B-mode. The overlay uses `draw_velocity_field`, a single self-contained (numpy + matplotlib) helper reproduced inside `reconstruct.py` from the LITMUS core Python package (`litmus.core_py.visualization`), so the script has no dependency on the full LITMUS GPU stack.
