A calibration-free method for measurement of sound speed in biological tissue samples

A transmission method for speed-of-sound measurement in biological tissue specimens is described. The technique involves detecting the time of arrival of a transmitted pulse with a small hydrophone that penetrates the tissue sample in accurately known increments. The technique allows localized measu...
