get_tissuestruct()
This function is deprecated and should not be used. It has been replaced by set_layered_medium.
Description: Create a structure representing multiple layers of different tissues.
Usage
ts = get_tissuestruct(z, f0, nlayer, z_int, types);
Arguments
- z Grid vector in the z direction.
- f0 Frequency of the transducer array in Hz. Used to calculate frequency-dependent properties of the tissue layers.
- nlayer Number of tissue layers.
- z_int Vector containing z coordinates of interfaces between tissue types.
- types The tissue types of the various layers. Valid types are as follows:
- 'f' fat
- 'l' liver
- 'm' muscle
- 's' skin
- 'w' water
Output Parameters
- ts A MATLAB struct representing the different tissue properties and
Notes
The first layer of the tissue struct starts at z(1) and ends at the boundary of the next layer. The final layer ends at the final z coordinate.
