Claim 8:
9. The measurement system according to claim 1, further comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium having processor-executable instructions stored thereon, wherein the processor-executable instructions, when executed by one or more processors, facilitate performance of a method for measuring an inhomogeneity of the medium in the vessel in which measurement parameters of the first and the second ultrasound signal running through the medium inside the vessel are measured, the method comprising the steps of:
measuring the first measurement parameter p1 of the first ultrasound signal along the first path;
measuring the second measurement parameter p2 of the second ultrasound signal along the second path;
determining the ratio p1/p2 of the first measurement parameter p1 to the second measurement parameter p2 of the second ultrasound signal;
determining the ratio h/D of the distance h covered by the first ultrasound signal along the first path to the distance D covered by the second ultrasound signal along the first path;
comparing the ratio p1/p2 with the ratio h/D; and
controlling a process based on the comparison of the ratio p1/p2 with the ratio h/D.
