More Information
Summary:Disclosed herein systems, processors, or computer-readable media configured with instructions to: receive transmission and/or reflection images of a tissue of a subject, wherein the images are generated from acoustic signals derived from acoustic waveforms transmitted through the tissue; provide a set of prognostic parameters associated with a user selected region of interest; wherein the set of prognostic parameters comprises sound propagation metrics characterizing sound propagation within a tissue; wherein the set of prognostic parameters corresponds to inputs into a tissue classifier model; wherein the set of prognostic parameters comprises a plurality of subsets of related feature groupings; and determine a type of tissue of the subject based on said plurality of subsets of related feature groupings using the classifier model, wherein the type of tissue is a cancerous tumor, a fibroadenoma, a cyst, a nonspecific benign mass, and an unidentifiable mass.
