摘要：

Fast echographic multiparameter multi-image novel apparatus (FEMMINA), is a hardware and software platform dedicated to ultrasonic signal and image processing. FEMMINA is able to operate with sequences of radio-frequency (RF) frames. Its architecture is designed to be modular, expandable, and aimed at implementing different ultrasonic investigation techniques. The first experimental characteristic of this system is in its capability to operate in real time with ultrasonic RF signals, starting from acquisition up to processing, storage, and visualization. The second characteristic is the user-system interactivity that allows one to modify the operation appropriately while observing results. Currently, FEMMINA works in both typical experimental situations to study novel investigation techniques and clinical field to validate the proposed methods in different human districts.
