Ultrasound students present at UITC 2024

Two BME students in Dr. Herickhoff's Ultrasound lab attended and presented at the 48th annual symposium on Ultrasonic Imaging and Tissue Characterization (UITC), held at the Westin Gateway Hotel in Arlington, Virginia, on May 29-31.  PhD student Kashta Dozier-Muhammad presented on "Limited-aperture diverging-wave transmit schemes to maximize field-of-view and image quality," and undergraduate Farraday Johnson presented on "Simulation of a novel 2D array transducer design for transcranial doppler signal acquisition."  In addition to attending other research talks (ranging from elasticity and super-resolution vascular imaging to photoacoustic contrast and quantitative ultrasound techniques), Kashta, Farraday, and Dr. Herickhoff were able to network with faculty and trainees from across the country and visit the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture on the National Mall. It was an excellent conference, and we intend to be back with an expanded cohort next year!
