   Hi all,

   I had a quick questions regarding the possibility of simulating small transducers in k-Wave, both traditional piezo based or cMUT. For example, what considerations should I be aware of if I were interested in modeling an IVUS probe or and ICE/TEE probe that has a small array of transducers? Is this even possible with k-Wave?

   I haven't seen any publications with k-Wave for these styles of ultrasound probes. Any advice or suggestions would be much appreciated!

   Thanks,
   Al

   Hi AI,

   There is no particular difficulty in simulating transducer of any scale, provided the grid is resized appropriately. If you want to simulate smaller transducers / high frequencies and large domain sizes, you may find the simulations become computationally expensive (definitely use the C++ code in this case).

   Brad.
