Previously published summaries of sound speed, density, attenuation coefficient, and
nonlinearity parameter, B/A, in human soft tissues are quantitatively analyzed. A highly …

A detailed review of the literature on ultrasonic propagation properties of mammalian tissues
and organs has revealed 144 papers containing compilable data. Over 1300 lines of …

Ultrasonic attenuation in the frequency range 1–7 MHz, and the speed of sound, were
determined experimentally in both fresh and fixed bovine and human soft tissues for various …

Elasticity imaging is based on two processes. The first is the evaluation of the mechanical
response of a stressed tissue using imaging modalities, eg ultrasound, magnetic resonance …

Interest in quantitative ultrasound scattering measurements in biological tissues stems from
the belief that only a fraction of the total information available in the echo signal is visible in …

A model and method to accurately estimate the local speed of sound in tissue from pulse-
echo ultrasound data is presented. The model relates the local speeds of sound along a …

This study was designed to measure the ultrasonic attenuation within phantoms and tissue
samples over a broad bandwidth and at many angles of incidence with respect to intrinsic …

In 1975, one of the authors (ML) organized an international Seminar on Ultrasonic Tissue
Characterization and thereby coined a term that has become part of the standard lexicon of …

A finite-difference time-domain model for ultrasonic pulse propagation through soft tissue
has been extended to incorporate absorption effects as well as longitudinal-wave …
