SUMMARY:Anglia Local Section: Hyper-aperture Ultrasound: A New Paradigm in Medical Ultrasound
UID:460
DESCRIPTION:\n\n \n\nTopic:Hyper-aperture Ultrasound: A New Paradigm in Medical Ultrasound.\n\nPresenter:Dr. Laura Peralta Pereira, Senior Lecturer in Biomedical Engineering at King’s College London.\n\nSynopsis:Ultrasound is one of the most used medical imaging modalities. It is safe, portable and inexpensive, and it provides real-time images without radiation. However, conventional systems are limited by physical constraints leading to low resolution images with a restricted field of view and view-dependent artefacts. This lecture will discuss ongoing efforts to advance medical ultrasound via the use of hyper-apertures, a new approach that Dr. Peralta Pereira’s group has pioneered.\n\nTo view a copy of the event poster please click here.\n\nSpeaker:Dr. Laura Peralta Pereira.\nLaura Peralta is a civil engineer who holds an MSc in Structural Mechanics and a PhD degree from the University of Granada, Spain. She is currently a Senior Lecturer in Biomedical Engineering at King’s College London where she co-leads the Quantitative Ultrasound Imaging and Intervention Lab (QUIINlab).\n\nHer research interests range from fundamental ultrasound studies to clinical applications, including ultrasound propagation in complex media, beamforming methods, quantitative ultrasound and issue characterization. She was awarded the Wellcome/EPSRC Centre for Medical Engineering Research Fellowship in 2021, and since 2022, she holds a Royal Society University Research Fellowship.\n\nDetails from Liyana Aini, (Institute of Physics Lecture Organiser):\nWednesday 25th February 2026, starting at 7:00pm:-\nA Joint Meeting with the Institute of Physics, and The Institute of Measurement and Control.\n(In person at Lindop Building, College Lane, University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, Herts, AL10 9AB).\n\nRefreshments will be available from 6pm.\nParking is free around the Lindop Building after 6pm.\nThis event is free, but please book to ensure your place is reserved.\nFor further information, and to book, please contact Liyana Aini. liyanaaini@gmail.com\n\n \n\n
