摘要
The image features, such as enhancements, shadows and lateral shadows, posterior to a tumor in a B-Mode diagnostic ultrasonography, are studied. The tumor is simplified as a homogeneous cylinder in an inhomogeneous medium. Using the ray theory we derive the intensity in the region behind the cylinder. Taking the influences of sound attenuation and the time gain compensation of the B-Mode displyer into acount , we simulate with a computer five images corresponding to our experiments conducted with a tissue equivalent phantom. The theoratical images seem to be in good qualitative agreement with the experimental results.
