“…The above relation between speed and ambient temperature is analogous to that of a previous experimental study regarding the temperature variation of ultrasound velocity in liver and fatty tissue, where the velocity decreases for fatty specimens but increases for non-fatty tissues with temperature rise [11,12]. Another study also revealed that the sound speed for human fat tissues decreases with a rate of 2.7 m/s/°C from 1474.2 ± 7.8 m/s to 1427.8 ± 12.7 m/s in the range of 20-37°C [13]. In particular, it was shown that the sound speed in non-fatty breast tissue linearly increases from 1540 m/s to 1580 m/s through 23°C to 43°C.…”
