Systems and methods for classifying and characterizing tissue using first and second order statistics for quantitative ultrasound parameter mapping

Systems and methods for classifying tissue using quantitative ultrasound techniques. Parameters are calculated directly from raw echo signal data acquired from a region of interest during an ultrasound scan and used to generate a parameter map. These parameters were calculated after normalizing the echo signal data with reference data to reduce the influence of variations in instrument settings, ultrasound beam diffraction and attenuation effects. First and second order statistical measures are computed from these parametric maps and used to classify the tissue or tissues in the region of interest. Using these systems and methods, organizations can be classified using different classification levels. For example, tissue characterized as malignant cancer can be additionally graded (eg, grade I, II or III).

Systems and Methods for Ultrasonic Characterization of Permafrost, Frozen Soil and Saturated Soil Samples

An ultrasonic sensing technique and a signal interpretation method based on a spectral element multiphase poromechanical approach overcomes critical gaps in permafrost, frozen soil, and saturated soil characterization. Ultrasonic sensing produces high-quality response signals that are sensitive to the soil properties. A transfer function denoting a ratio of induced displacement and applied force in the frequency domain, is independent of the distribution of the stress force applied by the transducer to the sample, and allows interpretation of the measured electrical signal using a theoretical transfer function relation to efficiently determine the most probable properties from response signals using an inverse spectral element multiphase poromechanical approach. This ultrasonic sensing technique enables rapid characterization of soil samples in terms of both physical and mechanical properties. The Quantitative Ultrasound (QUS) system can be used in a laboratory setup or brought on site for in-situ investigation of permafrost, frozen, and saturated soil samples.
