Clarius Parser

Utilities for unpacking Clarius ultrasound data samples and creating B-mode images.

Installation

1. Install Python dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Running

Run both scripts in order:

Step 1: Unpack Samples

python 0_unpack_samples.py

This script automatically processes all sample folders found in data/samples/. Simply place any number of sample folders (each containing .tar files) in the data/samples/ directory, and the script will extract all tar archives from every sample folder.

Step 2: Create B-mode Images

python 1_create_bmode_images.py

This script automatically processes all extracted folders (*_extracted) found across all sample folders. It generates B-mode images from the extracted RF data and saves them in bmode_images/ folders within each extracted directory.

Important: Both scripts automatically handle an unlimited number of samples. Just add your sample folders to data/samples/ and run the scripts - they will process everything automatically.

Notes

• Run 0_unpack_samples.py first, then 1_create_bmode_images.py
• By default, B-mode images are created for the first frame only
• Use --all-frames to process all frames: python 1_create_bmode_images.py --all-frames
