Abstract

The invention is directed to systems and methods for detecting and presenting textural information from medical images. In one embodiment, a medical imaging system includes an imaging transducer assembly configured to emit one or more energy pulses and receive one or more echo signals, and a console, coupled to the imaging transducer assembly, configured to receive the one or more echo signals, generate an uncompressed image based on the one or more echo signals, generate a log compressed image based on the uncompressed image, generate a color overlay based on the uncompressed image, and apply the color overlay to the log compressed image.
