In this talk, we will present a parametric imaging method that can be used to complement B-mode breast imaging. In particular, this method reconstructs the sound velocity and the attenuation coefficient distribution in the breast using a linear array. Furthermore, the imaging setup is identical to the B-mode setup and thus the parametric imaging method can be easily implemented. The reconstruction algorithm, system setup, phantom and clinical results are described with a discussion on the potential in improving breast cancer detection.[SDGs]SDG3Acoustic imaging; Array processing; Eigenvalues and eigenfunctions; Imaging systems; Imaging techniques; Ultrasonic applications; Ultrasonic testing; Ultrasonics; Attenuation coefficients; Breast cancer detection; Breast imaging; Linear arrays; Parametric imaging; Reconstruction algorithms; Sound velocities; System setups; Ultrasonic imagingconference paper10.1109/ACSSC.2006.3550192-s2.0-47049100994
