CIMT measurements of the same CCA for different DRs. The figure show from top left (clockwise) identical US images of the CCA, where the DR is changed, and the CIMTmean and CIMTmax measurements differ. A) This image is captured using DR 40 dB, yielding CIMTmean and CIMTmax measurements of 0.603 and 0.687 millimetres, respectively B) US image captured using 55 dB, CIMTmean and CIMTmax were 0.648 and 0.713 millimetres. C) US image captured using 70 dB, CIMTmean and CIMTmax were 0.679 and 0.743. D) US image captured using 85 dB, CIMTmean and CIMTmax were 0.691 and 0.750 millimetre.
