Résumé

Texture analysis (TA) is becoming an increasingly used tool in radiological research. Some papers have been published on its use in ultrasound (US), but the way in which the machine settings affect the features has not yet been fully explored. With this research, we analyze how the time gain compensation (TGC) influences the features of the gray-level matrices in the abdominal US setting. We analyzed the images acquired from the hepatorenal acoustic window of a healthy 29-year-old volunteer acquired with different TGC settings. TA was carried out using the LifeX software. Several both 1 TGC settings must be accounted for when carrying out further TA studies.
