ABSTRACT:
An ultrasonic image of a living body is obtained by use of an ultrasonic apparatus and, an ultrasound tissue characterization value at a region of interest of the body, such as the ultrasound propagation velocity, the scattered ultrasound waveform width, and the attenuation coefficient, is measured and calculated by use of a cross beam method. These processes are performed in real time and the results of processing are continuously displayed. In this way, the tissue characterization values of the living body can be determined and the state of a disease present in the region of interest can be examined readily and clearly.
