摘要：
A method for imaging a volume of tissue in a scan region, including: emitting, from transmitting transducers, acoustic waveforms toward the volume of tissue detecting, with detecting transducers, a plurality acoustic signals derived from acoustic waveforms interacting with the volume of tissue generating from the detected acoustic signals a plurality of variable attenuation maps, in which each variable attenuation map corresponds to acoustic signals detected by a respective detecting transducer and includes a plurality of variable attenuation coefficients mapped to the scan region modifying at least a portion of the detected acoustic signals based on one or more variable attenuation maps and generating a reflection rendering of the volume of tissue based on the modified acoustic signals.
