Abshzct-The results of backscatter measurements in an inhomogeneous phantom obtained using phase-sensitive detection are compared with those obtained using phase-insensitive detection by means of a two-dimensional pseudo-array of point-like receivers. Phase-sensitive measurements were performed using a conventional 13-mm-diameter piezoelectric receiver at a scattering angle of approximately 170". Phase-insensitive measurements were obtained at the same sites by computing the zeroth-order two-dimensional spatial moment of the ultrasonic energy measured by a pseudo-array. At all sites the backscatter transfer function obtained using phase-insensitive detection was consistently larger in magnitude and exhibited smaller fluctuations with frequency than the corresponding phase-sensitive backscatter transfer function. Spatial averaging of the phase-sensitive results provided smoother backscatter transfer functions but could not recover the loss of magnitude resulting from phase-cancellation. These investigations suggest that phase-insensitive detection represents a means to improve the accuracy of backscatter measurements in inhomogeneous media.
