The scattering anisotropy, g, of tissue can be a powerful metric of tissue structure, and is most directly measured via goniometry and fitting to the Henyey-Greenstein phase function. We present a method based on an independent attenuation measurement of the scattering coefficient along with Monte Carlo simulations to account for multiple scattering, allowing the accurate determination of measu...

In the present paper an automated version of well established 30 MHz IF (intermediate frequency) substitution technique based on LabVIEW platform has been developed, used for measuring RF attenuation. A detailed software implementation and hardware synchronization with developed software is elaborated with user defined GUI on LabVIEW platform. A complete set of measurement have been performed a...

osting by E Abstract The variation of photon attenuation coefficient on the chemical media has been investigated. For this purposes the linear attenuations of barite concrete have been measured at 662, 1773 and 1332 keV before leaving the chemical media and following a 6 month period. The linear attenuation coefficients have been measured using gamma spectrometer that contains a NaI(Tl) detecto...

The practical usefulness of long-range acoustic measurements of ocean acidity-linked sound absorption is analyzed. There are two applications: Determining spatially-averaged pH via absorption measurement and verifying absorption effects in an area of known pH. The method is a differential-attenuation technique, with the difference taken across frequency. Measurement performance versus mean freq...

Attenuation estimation and imaging in the cervix has been utilized to evaluate the onset of cervical ripening during pregnancy. This feature has also been utilized for the acoustic characterization of leiomyomas and myometrial tissue. In this paper, we present direct narrowband substitution measurement values of the variation in the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient in ex vivo human uterine an...

We reconsider the long-standing problem of accurate measurement of atomic form factors for fundamental and applied problems. We discuss the X-ray extended-range technique for accurate measurement of the mass attenuation coefficient and the imaginary component of the atomic form factor. Novelties of this approach include the use of a synchrotron with detector normalisation, the direct calibratio...
