The most troublesome of ultrasonic B-mode imaging is the difficulty of accurately diagnosing
cancers, benign tumors, and cysts because they appear similar to each other in B-mode …

Ultrasound (US) shear wave (SW) elastography has been widely studied and implemented
on clinical systems to assess the elasticity of living organs. Imaging of SW attenuation …

the present invention relates to the measurement and monitoring of intracranial contents'
volume and intracranial pressure, and more particularly relates to an apparatus and method …

This paper studies imaging of tissue-specific ultrasound attenuation. A new method is
presented where the imaged parameter is the mean attenuation coefficient between the …

Strain imaging in a medical ultrasound imaging system can differentiate the cancer or tumor
in a lesion that is stiffer than the surrounding tissue. In this paper, a strain imaging technique …

This paper proposes a method of measuring and visualizing the elasticity distribution of the
human soft tissue to detect tumors or cancers which have been difficult to diagnose in …

The difference in echogenicity between cancerous and normal tissues is not quite
distinguishable in ultrasound B-mode imaging. However, tumor or cancer in breast or …

Breast and prostate tumors or cancers tend to be stiffer than the surrounding normal tissue.
However, the difference in echogenicity between cancerous and normal tissues is not …

In this paper we propose a method for measuring the shear modulus of an ultrasound soft
tissue phantom using an acoustic radiation force. The proposed method quantitatively …

Ultrasound attenuation coefficient is an important diagnostic parameter in medical
ultrasonography. Furthermore, it is a parameter of a component related to the attenuation …
