Résumé:This paper gives a review of the current state-of-the-art in ultrasound parallel acquisition systems for flow imaging using spherical and plane waves emissions. The imaging methods are explained along with the advantages of using these very fast and sensitive velocity estimators. These experimental systems are capable of acquiring thousands of images per second for fast moving flow as well as yielding the estimates of low velocity flow. These emerging techniques allow the vector flow systems to assess highly complex flow with transitory vortices and moving tissue, and they can also be used in functional ultrasound imaging for studying brain function in animals. This paper explains the underlying acquisition and estimation methods for fast 2-D and 3-D velocity imaging and gives a number of examples. Future challenges and the potentials of parallel acquisition systems for flow imaging are also discussed
