Will the cortex thickness affect the fat attenuation parameter?
A：
The fat attenuation parameter is the relative attenuation measurement of sound energy in certain liver tissues. In other words, it compares the attenuation of sound energy in 4cm-depth liver tissues in the beginning of detection to that at the end of detection. So, the fat attenuation parameter is not related to the cortex thickness.
