摘要：
The present invention provides improved methods and systems for generating enhanced images of a volume of tissue. In an aspect, the method comprises receiving from a transducer, a plurality of acoustic signals derived from acoustic waveforms transmitted through the volume of tissue； generating from the acoustic signals, a first reflection rendering that characterizes sound reflection, the first reflection rendering comprising a first distribution of reflection values across a region of the volume of tissue； generating from the acoustic signals, a sound speed rendering that characterizes sound speed, the sound speed rendering comprising a distribution of sound speed values across the region； generating from the sound speed rendering, a second reflection rendering that characterizes sound reflection, the second reflection rendering comprising a second distribution of reflection values across the region； and rendering one or more combined images, based on the first reflection rendering and the second reflection rendering.
