IMAGING AN ANOMALY USING BACKSCATTERED WAVES

摘要

A method for generating an image of an anomaly may include generating a pulse wave into a structure being evaluated from each of a plurality of sensors and collecting scattered wave data caused by the pulse wave impacting an anomaly. The scattered wave data may be collected by the same sensor that generated the pulse wave or by a different sensor. The method may also include identifying backscattered wave data from a distal edge or border of the anomaly relative to a location of the sensor collecting the scattered wave data. The method may additionally include processing the backscattered wave data from each of the sensors collecting the scattered wave data to generate a two dimensional image of the anomaly. The method may further include presenting the two dimensional image of the anomaly.
