Recent advances in electronics and digital processing techniques have significantly
improved conventional ultrasonic imaging systems and allowed the development of new …

Two ultrasonic scattering models for human tissue are suggested, one in which the
homogeneities are discrete and the other an inhomogeneous continuum. After discussing …

Ultrasonic Scattering in Biological Tissues contains 14 chapters written by world-renowned
authorities who describe current work related to theoretical and experimental aspects of …

Measurements are reported on the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient, the velocity of sound
propagation and the differential scattering coefficient (for 180° scattering) for 3 types of …

The accurate prediction of flow regimes is vital for the analysis of behaviour and operation of
gas/liquid two-phase systems in industrial processes. This paper investigates the feasibility …

The study of ultrasound tissue interactions in fatty livers has a long history with strong clinical
potential for assessing steatosis. Recently we proposed alternative measures of first-and …

Fifty years of research on the nature of backscatter from tissues has resulted in a number of
promising diagnostic parameters. We recently introduced two analyses tied directly to the …

The H-scan approach ('H'denoting hue, or Hermite) is a recent matched filter methodology
that aims to add information to the traditional ultrasound B-scan. The theory is based on the …

The term “tissue characterization” covers a range of meanings from qualitative assesments
to scientific measurements. From the vast literature available the selection presented is used …

A method for classifying flow regimes is proposed that employs a neural network with inputs
of extracted features from Doppler ultrasonic signals of flows using either the Discrete …
