One of simple and quantitative evaluation candidates for internal or localized skin infection is tissue characterization based on quantitative ultrasound diagnosis. In this report, measurement objects were three kinds of rat skin ulcer models. We combined features of skin ulcer understood around microscopically-detectable with evaluation of pathological and acoustic property measured by acoustic microscopy to analyse macroscopically tissue structure under the skin. First, we confirmed fiting accuracy between statistics models and envelope probability density function calculated using echo signal measured by commercially available ultrasound diagnostic equipment to reflect envelope statistics property with skin ulcer. Moreover, we focused on shape parameters of statistics model because of assumption based on attribution changing scatterer density to localized infection. The result of analysis showed the difference of tissue characterization between non-infection and infection makes parameters of statistics models change. |
