title: [Representation of texture parameters of B-mode sonograms in image form].
abstract: The possibility is exemplified of visualising important parameters of the statistical texture describing the echogenicity of ultrasound B-mode scans of the liver as a composite image. The two relevant parameters are gray level and standard deviation of gray levels. These were selected because they offer the best criterion to differentiate between tissues. In a composite image, the mean gray level is represented by the luminosity information, whereas the other main parameter of the gray-level histogram, the standard deviation of gray levels, is represented by the colour information. These composite images show texture parameters of the whole scan and allow an efficient documentation of the same.
