Biography

Zhao Chen was born in Shandong, China. He received his B.Sc degree in 2011 from Fudan University, Shanghai, China and M.Sc degree in 2012 from Imperial College London, London, UK. He is currently working toward the Ph.D. degree at the Electronic Instrumentation Laboratory of Delft University of Technology, Delft,The Netherlands.His research topic is on ASIC design for medical ultrasound imaging.

Ultra-X-treme: Ultrafast Ultrasound Imaging for Extended Diagnosis and Treatment of Vascular Disease

The NWO Perspectief Programme Ultra-X-treme is a 4 Meuro programme in which 5 academic centers and 8 companies collaborate to develop patient-specific ultrasound-based techniques to diagnose and treat vascular disease

Projects history

Miniature ultrasound probes for real-time 3D imaging and monitoring of cardiac interventions

This research project will enable the next generation of miniature ultrasound probes for real-time 3D transesophageal echocardiography, suitable for use in small children and newborns.
