Quantitative contrast measurements in B-mode images comparison between experiment and theory
Abstract
Quantitative measurements of image contrast were carried out for B-mode images of anechoic spheres (cysts) embedded in a random scattering medium. Four transducer geometries were used: (a) f/5.7 spherical transducer in pulse echo mode, (b) f/2.4 spherical transducer in pulse echo mode, (c) f/2.4, 30 degrees cone (hybrid transducer), (d) f/5.7, 30 degrees cone (hybrid transducer). The image contrast was also calculated via two methods; (i) a …
