title: [Difficulty in determining ultrasonic attenuation values from selective echograms].
abstract: The value of tomography is beyond all doubt. Custom systems allow the quantitative assessment of topographic and kinetic parameters of various organs and the blood. The assessment of tissue, however, is still qualitative and experimental methods for quantitative tissue characteristics are still expensive. We propose a method, that allows the determination of attenuation coefficients with little technical expense.
