Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 14:
15. An ultrasound imaging method, comprising:
transmitting an ultrasound wave to a target tissue and receiving an ultrasound echo from the target tissue to obtain an ultrasound echo signal, the target tissue being a tissue of a liver;
performing a gain compensation for enhancing image quality on a first ultrasound echo signal for obtaining an ultrasound image of the target tissue;
performing a gain compensation for preserving original information on a second ultrasound echo signal for calculating a quantitative parameter of the liver;
generating the ultrasound image of the target tissue according to the processed first ultrasound echo signal;
calculating the quantitative parameter of the liver according to the processed second ultrasound echo signal, wherein the quantitative parameter comprises a quantitative parameter representing an ultrasound attenuation degree in the liver, a quantitative parameter representing a difference between ultrasound echoes from the liver and another tissue, and a quantitative parameter representing an ultrasound velocity in the liver; and
displaying the ultrasound image and the quantitative parameter.
