Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) system allows acoustic characterization at the cell size level. There are two standard methods of preparing thin sliced samples, paraffin-embedded and frozen, and we have confirmed that the time of formalin fixation, which is often used in both methods, affects the speed of sound (SoS). In addition, the paraffin-embedded thin sliced samples have the problem of melting fat in the tissues. On the other hand, the freezing method is the absence of heat treatment, so it might be possible to evaluate the SoS of fat. This paper investigated the effect of the sample preparation on evaluating SoS in the freezing method. In particular, we focused on the half Karnovsky fixation method and examined the effect of the different fixation methods on the SoS. It was confirmed that half Karnovsky-fixation reduced tissue damage to the same extent as formalin fixation, and the absence of heat treatment improved the validity of SoS evaluation.
