A medical diagnostic imaging system and method for adjusting image gain compensation when changing from a first imaging state to a second imaging state, where a first image power value is determined from an image acquired in a first imaging state with a first image gain compensation, a second image power value is determined from an image acquired in a second imaging state with an initial second image gain compensation, an image power change value is determined from the first image power value and the second image power value, and an adjusted second image gain compensation calculated from the initial second image gain compensation and the image power change value.

Method and system for adjusting image gain

A method for determining a physical characteristic on a punctual location inside a medium, comprising the steps of: sending an emitted sequence comprising emitted pulses having different amplitudes, receiving a received sequence comprising received pulses corresponding to echoes of emitted pulses, calculating a phase difference between the received pulses relative to the emitted pulses, and determining the physical characteristic on the bases of a phase difference.
