The Generalized Contrast-to-Noise Ratio: A Formal Definition for Lesion Detectability
IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, 2019 In the last 30 years, the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) has been used to estimate the contrast and lesion detectability in ultrasound images. Recent studies have shown that the CNR cannot be used with modern beamformers, as dynamic range alterations can ...
