The invention relates to a method for measuring at least one property of biological tissue (16), comprising the steps of: positioning (1) an ultrasonic transducer (12) opposite said biological tissue (16) to be measured； generating (21) at least one ultrasonic signal within said biological tissue (16)； and acquiring (22) at least one ultrasonic signal reflected by said biological tissue (16). Said method further comprises the steps of: determining (3) at least one parameter of said biological tissue (16) by means of said acquisition (22) of said at least one ultrasonic signal reflected by said biological tissue (16), said at least one parameter being representative of said biological tissue (16)； comparing (4) said at least one parameter of said biological tissue (16) with at least one reference parameter of a target biological tissue so as to confirm the hypothesis of the presence of said target biological tissue opposite said ultrasonic transducer； and determining (5) at least one property of said biological tissue (16) on the basis of the result of said comparison step (4). The method can be directly used in the field of humans or animals.
