Wavelet transforms in estimating scatterer spacing from ultrasound echoes

In this thesis, we propose a wavelet transform based technique, which is capable of estimating the location of each scattering center, making it possible to obtain the ISS distribution. We represent liver tissue with a point scatterer model, and show, via computer simulation and clinical data, that...
