Various means of characterizing ultrasonic attenuation in tissue are reviewed. A simple method for estimating frequency-dependent attenuation via measurement of the zero crossing density of the signal is presented and validated. Both the effects of the frequency dependence of scatter and stochastic variability of the measurement are considered and discussed. Results of measurements made in phantoms, animals and humans are presented and compared to the theoretical model. The technique is shown to be technically feasible. Key words: Attenuation; computer model; scattering; ultrasound. I
