(color online) Speed of sound imaging by a prototype SoftVue ® breast imaging system. (a) Cylindrical phantom of gelatin immersed in water, with 15% gelatin (light cylinder with dark central hole from cooled water in thin walled latex tube) and with a very attenuating thick walled silicone flow return tube outside the gelatin at the 8 o’clock position; (b) speed of sound image; (c) reflection mode ultrasound image; (d) profiles of speed of ultrasound versus temperature for water and gelatin. |
