Abstract

A method of forming an image of a region of interest using a pulse-echo imaging device is described. The method includes the steps of transmitting a pulse, discriminating an echo of the pulse by comparison to a plurality of Hermite polynomials, and determining a color for display based on the comparison. A system for forming an image of a region of interest is also described. The system includes a pulse-echo imaging device for transmitting a pulse and a control unit in communication with the pulse-echo imaging device. The control unit is configured to discriminate an echo of the pulse by comparison to a plurality of Hermite polynomials and determine a color for display based on the comparison.
