A method and system for generating an enhanced image of a volume of tissue, comprising: emitting acoustic waveforms toward the volume of tissue； detecting acoustic signals derived from acoustic waveforms interacting with the volume of tissue； generating a reflection rendering of a region of the volume of tissue； generating at least one of a sound speed map and an attenuation map of the region of the volume of tissue； generating a transfer map derived from a set of sound speed parameter values of the sound speed map and/or a set of acoustic attenuation parameter values of the acoustic attenuation map, the set of sound speed parameter values and the set of acoustic attenuation parameters associated with the set of elements of the region of the volume of tissue； and rendering an enhanced image of the volume of tissue, derived from processing of the reflection rendering with the transfer map.
