Claim One:
1. An imaging system comprising: an ultrasound transducer configured to acquire a plurality of data vectors by emitting acoustic energy and receiving a backscatter of the acoustic energy, each data vector comprising ultrasound data; an imaging engine comprising at least one processor, the imaging engine configured to: receive the plurality of data vectors from the ultrasound transducer; form a first set of data vectors and a second set of data vectors from the plurality of data vectors; generate, using the at least one processor, a first combination of data and a second combination of data based on the first set of data vectors and the second set of data vectors, respectively; generate, using the at least one processor, a first envelope and a second envelope based on the first combination of data and the second combination of data, respectively; generate, using the at least one processor, a combined envelope based on the first envelope and the second envelope; and generate, using the at least one processor, an image based on the combined envelope.
