Using an ultrasonic field, properties of a solid liquid suspension such a s through-transmission attenuation, backscattering, and diffuse field are me asured. These properties are converted to quantities indicating the strength of different loss mechanisms (such as absorption, single scattering and mul tiple scattering) among particles in the suspension. Such separation of the loss mechanisms can allow for direct comparison of the attenuating effects o f the mechanisms. These comparisons can also indicate a model most likely to accurately characterize the suspension and can aid in determination of prop erties such as particle size, concentration, and density of the suspension.< /SDOAB>
