摘要: The invention relates to a property determining apparatus for of an object, which is preferentially heart. An ultrasound signal providing unit provides the object and scatter determination (8) determines at least one value being indicative pulse by fluid perfusing depending on signal. A (15) value. In contrast tissue damage detection methods based bubble formation, related perfusion, like whether ablated or non-ablated, can relatively directly be determined fluid, thereby increasing accuracy object.
