Quantification of the CARI breast imaging sensitivity by 2D/3D numerical time-domain ultrasound wave propagation Original Research Article

Breast imaging systems must recognize very small lesions at early stage of detection in order to save lives and reduce costs. The clinical amplitude–velocity reconstruction imaging (CARI), a recent breast imaging technique, is based on the differentiation of velocity and attenuation of ultrasound wave propagating through the breast tissues. Moreover, the method is experimentally verified to have higher sensitivity than conventional ultrasound.
