Improved image quality for assessment of Carotid Artery Stenosis by ultrafast ultrasound FLOW imaging (CAS-iFLOW)

Ultrasound velocity vector imaging data as presented in https://doi.org/10.1109/tuffc.2024.3355712 & https://doi.org/10.1109/tuffc.2025.3631658. Articles compare the velocity vector imaging performance of cascaded dual-polarity wave (CDW) imaging versus conventional plane wave imaging. The dataset consists of 20 subjects with varying degree of carotid stenosis. All ultrafast ultrasound data uses a PRF of 8 kHz, with repeated steering angles of -20 and + 20 degrees. CDW imaging was performed using four pulses in a train and decoded using time-domain and frequency-domain decoding.
