ReflectionsReflections
• Impedances equal no reflection
• Impedances similar little reflected
• Impedances very different virtually all reflected

Fraction Reflected = ------------------------ = ----------

Rayleigh ScatteringRayleigh Scattering
• redirection of sound in many directions
• caused by rough surface with respect to wavelength of sound
![Page 12: George David Associate Professor Ultrasound Physics 03A: Reflections ‘97.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/5697c02a1a28abf838cd7f99/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Diffuse Scattering & Rough Surfaces
Diffuse Scattering & Rough Surfaces
• heterogeneous media
• cellular tissue
• particle suspension blood, for example
![Page 13: George David Associate Professor Ultrasound Physics 03A: Reflections ‘97.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/5697c02a1a28abf838cd7f99/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
ScatteringScattering• Occurs if
boundary not smooth
• Roughness related to frequencyfrequency changes wavelength
» higher frequency shortens wavelength
» shorter wavelength “roughens” surface

Specular ReflectionsSpecular Reflections
• Un-scattered soundoccurs with smooth
boundaries
• similar to light reflection from mirroropposite of scatter from
rough surfacewall is example of rough
surface

BackscatterBackscatter
• sound scattered back in the direction of source

Backscatter IntensityBackscatter Intensity
• normally << than specular reflections
• angle dependance specular reflection very angle dependent backscatter not angle dependent
» echo reception not dependent on incident angle
• increasing frequency effectively roughens surface
higher frequency results in more backscatter
