Photoacoustic imaging is an upcoming medical imaging modality with the potential of
imaging both optical and acoustic properties of objects. We present a measurement system …

The paper is focused on ultrasonic transmission tomography as a potential medical imaging
modality, namely for breast cancer diagnosis. Ultrasound attenuation coefficient is one of the …

Ultrasonic pulse-echo methods have played a significant role in monitoring the integrity of
adhesive joints along their service life. However, since for thin layers the echoes from two …

A modified version of pulse echo technique was used to measure the attenuation a and
backscattering α bs coefficient of ultrasound (frequency range 1-10 MHz) in freshly excised …

Publisher Summary This chapter presents the introduction application of computerized
transmission tomography. The use of computerized tomography methods in medical X-rays …

The measurement of tissue attenuation from pulse-echo data has been widely investigated.
This paper examines correction of the measurements for the effect of the transducer beam …

We examine the consequences of anisotropy in the ultrasonic attenuation on computed
tomography. A phenomenological model for anisotropy in the ultrasonic attenuation of soft …

The aim of this study was to assess the differentiation of histologically different types of
choroidal melanomas by means of clinical and quantitative acoustic/texture parameters of …

Aqueous methylcellulose solutions are fascinating inverse-freezing materials, known to
reversibly form gels upon heating. Recently, these materials have been found to undergo …

The Chen-Holm and Treeby-Cox wave equations are space-fractional partial differential
equations that describe power law attenuation of the form α (ω)≈ α 0| ω| y⁠. Both of these …
