A system and method for tissue differentiation. In the method, M acoustic signals si(t), i = 1 to M, are obtained from M locations on a body surface. The N signals are subjected to band pass filtering using N band-pass filters, so as to generate NXM signals sij(t), i = 1 to M, j = 1 to N. K images I1 to IK, where K<N, are then generated using the signals sij(t), i = 1 to M, j = 1 to N. The pixels are divided into a predetermined number L of categories CL, from 1 to L, using the images I1 to IK. For each category CL, from 1 to L, and for each pixel p(x,y), a probability pL of assigning the pixel p(x,y) to the category CL is determined. An image may then be generated using the probabilities pL .

La présente invention a trait à un système et un procédé pour la différenciation tissulaire. Dans le procédé, M signaux acoustiques s¿i?(t), i = M, sont obtenus en provenance de M sites sur une surface de corps, Les N signaux sont soumis à un filtrage passe-bande au moyen de N filtres passe-bande, en vue de générer NXM signaux sij(t), i = M, j = 1 à N. K images I¿1? à I¿K?, où K <= N, sont ensuite générées au moyen des signaux sij(t), i = M, j = 1 à N. Les pixels sont ensuite divisés par un nombre prédéterminé L de catégories C¿l?, de 1 à L, au moyen des images I¿1? à I¿K?. Pour chaque catégorie = C¿l?, de 1 à L, et pour chaque pixel p(x,y), une probabilité p¿l? d'affectation du pixel p(x,y) à la catégorie C¿l? est déterminée. Une image peut alors être générée au moyen des probabilité p¿l?.
