This paper presents the theoretical, numerical and experimental frameworks for breast and bone imaging. The difficulties raised are somewhat different as, in soft tissues, the very small fluctuations to be quantified suffer from their very low values. This poor echogenic index generally induces low detection probability, for instance in the case of large diffuse masses. In bone imaging, the...

Ultrasound computed tomography (UCT) has various imaging modes; sound speed profile, attenuation profile and gradient of acoustic impedance. In these imaging modes, ultrasound scattering tomography gives high resolution images highly relating to anatomical structure. In order to visualize density distribution as new efficient information in diagnoses, we use echo scattering signals and...
