Modeling ultrasound imaging as a linear, shift-variant system

We solve the equation that governs acoustic wave propagation in an inhomogeneous medium to show that the radio-frequency (RF) ultrasound signal can be expressed as the result of filtering the scatterer field with a point-spread function. We extend the analysis to make the link between the RF ultraso...
