Abstract

In this paper, the depth and attenuation coefficient are estimated from the mutilayered liver tissue which contained a inhomogeneous one using reflected ultrasonic signals and the abnormal one is detected quantitatively. Regarding a liver tissue as several reflectors, we analyzed each one by the frequency spectral difference method and discussed its attenuation characteristics. For the verification of this method, the liver pantom and acryle are used. And also we proved the usefulness through the experiment.
