IntraVascular UltraSound (IVUS) imaging can provide information of the coronary atherosclerotic plaque. It allows the doctor to make comprehensive and accurate evaluation of diseased vessel. Some ultrasound data collecting devices for imaging system exhibited insufficient data transfer speed, high cost or inflexibility, so the authors presented a high speed data transfer and imaging method for intravascular ultrasound. After being collected and processed, ultrasound data was transferred to computer through USB3.0 interface. In addition, logarithmic compression and digital coordinate conversion were applied in computer before imaging. Data transmission experiment shows that the transfer speed always stays around 2040Mb/s. Finally, phantom imaging was conducted to demonstrate the performance of the system. It shows a clear pipe wall and a smooth luminal border.
