Product Information

Description

The TI Embedded Processor Software Toolkit for Medical Diagnostic Ultrasound (STK-MED) is a collection of several standard ultrasound algorithms optimized for TI’s C64x+ architecture. The algorithms showcase how ultrasound processing functions can leverage the C64x+ architecture for efficient performance and power consumption. The goal of the STK-MED is to shorten customer development time of a medical diagnostic ultrasound system by providing optimized implementations of commonly used processing blocks. The source code contained in the STK-MED can easily be extended or modified to develop customized and differentiated modules.

The TMS320C6455 DSP Starter Kit for Medical Imaging (DSK-MI) is an ideal platform to evaluate and develop with the STK-MED. The DSK-MI is a low-cost development platform designed to speed the development of medical imaging applications based on TI’s TMS320C64x+™ DSP generation. The DSK-MI is now available with the industries highest performing single core DSP running at 1.2GHz.

The evaluation version of the STK-MED is intended to give developers a chance to evaluate the STK-MED for free for a period of 90 days. This version includes software modules in object form, with a few modules in source code form.

Features

The STK-MED contains optimized C64x+ DSP software for processing blocks commonly found in a medical diagnostic ultrasound system. The STK-MED contains a detailed algorithm description, API documentation, benchmarks and test bench for each software module.

The software and test benches can either be run on a CCS device simulator or on a target device. (The C6455 DSK for Medical Imaging is a recommended platform for developing with the STK-MED.)

The STK-MED includes the following modules:
  • Optimized kernel implementations for Doppler Processing functions for 1D Color Flow, 2D Color Flow, Wall Filter and Power Estimator
  • Optimized kernel implementations of RF demodulation and decimation
  • Optimized kernel implementations of Delay And Sum (DAS) receive beamforming
  • Optimized system implementation of Scan Conversion on C64x+ DSP cores of the DM6437, C6455, DM6446 and OMAP3530 SoC
  • Optimized math utilities
These modules are offered in either source code (full production version), or a combination of source and object code (evaluation version.) The table below summarizes the deliverable form of each software module. (please see the file attached for layout of table)
