humanhealth.iaea.orgA reflection is produced when an acoustic wave encounters a difference in acoustic impedance , so an ultrasound image may be thought of as a map of the relative variations in acoustic impedance in the tissues −1 ≤R≤1 A negative value of R implies that the reflected wave is inverted with respect to the incident wave Z is the acoustic impedance

Attenuation The gradual loss of ultrasound energy as the wave propagates through tissue; it is caused by reflection, scattering, and absorption.
