An approximate nonlinear model for time gain compensation of amplitude modulated images of ultrasound contrast agent perfusion.
Microbubble ultrasound contrast agents allow blood perfusion to be imaged at the cost of an increased attenuation that is not properly handled by existing time gain compensation methods. An automatic TGC has been developed that is able to account for different microbubble concentrations. The techniq...
