CA 2658063

Method for ultrasound imaging comprising at least the following steps: a) a transmission step in which a plurality of ultrasonic waves are transmitted into an imaged region and a set of raw data is acquired by an array of transducers in response to each ultrasonic wave, the ultrasonic waves having different spatial frequency content; b) a coherence enhancing step in which, for each of a plurality of virtual transmit focal zones in the imaged region, at least one set of coherent data is synthesized from the sets of raw data; c) a beamforming step in which, for each of a plurality of locations included in each of the virtual transmit focal zones, an image pixel is computed by beamforming, using the set of coherent data.
