A method for ultrasound imaging of patient tissue. A first signal is obtained (272) of a first imaging ultrasound wave which has been reflected back from a location in the patient tissue (24) at a first time. A second signal is obtained (274) of a second imaging ultrasound wave which has been reflected back from the location in the patient tissue (24) at a later second time wherein the patient (14) has received at least some medical treatment by the second time. An image of the location is created (276) using the first signal and the second signal. In one example, the method is repeated for different locations to image the patient tissue, wherein the image of the patient tissue includes medically-treated locations and medically-untreated locations.

La présente invention concerne une méthode d'imagerie par ultrasons de tissu d'un patient. Un premier signal est obtenu d'une première onde ultrasonore d'imagerie qui a été réfléchie à partir d'un emplacement situé sur le tissu d'un patient une première fois. Un second signal est obtenu à partir d'une seconde onde ultrasonore d'imagerie qui a été réfléchie à partir de l'emplacement situé sur le tissu du patient une seconde fois ultérieure, le patient ayant reçu au moins un certain traitement médical avant la seconde fois. Une image de l'emplacement est créée à l'aide du premier signal et du second signal. Dans un exemple, la méthode est répétée pour des emplacements différents pour obtenir une image du tissu du patient, l'image du tissu du patient comprenant des emplacements traités médicalement et des emplacements non traités médicalement.
