Abstract
The electronic steering capability of 2D ultrasound probes makes them excellent candidates for real-time 3D imaging. However, considering that current ultrasound scanners rarely control more than 256 channels, it is necessary to optimize these probes to operate with a reduced number of active elements. By integrating acoustic simulations into a simulated annealing algorithm, we optimize the radiated profile of a 256 elements 2D ultrasound probe
