Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The ultrasound echoes scattered at a random medium, which contains N microscopic scatterers of volume ΔV and refrection coefficient R in a unit volume, are known to be emphasized at the border of the medium. Its phenomenon is called coherent echo. Incoherent echo is generated inside a medium and forms speckle patterns. The comparison between a theoretical value and a value of computer simulation about intensity ratio of coherent echo to incoherent echo was reported using a tissue mimicking phantom. In this report, for a scatterer's model, which has a plane border, theoretical analysis and numerical simulation are investigated and its accuracy is progressed.
