Estimation of Attenuation Coefficient for Detection of Abnormal Tissue in Liver
간내의 비정상 조직 검출을 위한 감쇠계수 추정
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.
