The Effect of Dynamic Range Alterations in the Estimation of Contrast

Many adaptive beamformers claim to produce images with increased contrast, a feature that could enable a better detection of lesions and anatomical structures. Contrast is often quantified using the contrast ratio (CR) and the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR). The estimation of CR and CNR can be affect...
