Semi-analytical computation of the acoustic field of a segment of a cylindrically concave transducer in lossless and attenuating media.

Conventional ultrasound transducers used for medical diagnosis generally consist of linearly aligned rectangular apertures with elements that are focused in one plane. While traditional beamforming is easily accomplished with such transducers, the development of quantitative, physics-based imaging m...
