Abstract
For estimating attenuation in ultrasound imaging, displacements at different locations along an acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) beam are used measured. The on-axis displacements and displacements from a phantom using a same ARFI focus as a reference are used to cancel out focusing effects. A single ARFI beam may be used to estimate the attenuation for a location.
