What control offers better visualization of fibroids by increasing penetration far field and resolution?

  1. Coded excitation

  2. Elastography

  3. Persistence

  4. Spatial compounding

The correct answer is: Coded excitation

Coded excitation is the correct answer because it is a technique that improves image quality by increasing penetration in the far field and resolution. By using longer coded pulses, coded excitation enables better visualization of structures located deeper within the body, such as fibroids. This technique helps to reduce noise and increase signal-to-noise ratio, leading to clearer and more detailed images. On the other hand, Elastography is used to assess tissue stiffness, Persistence is a post-processing technique that enhances temporal resolution by blending frames together, and Spatial compounding combines images acquired from different angles to improve overall image quality, but they do not specifically address the requirements mentioned in the question related to visualization of fibroids by increasing penetration in the far field and resolution.
