Reconstruction of the forehead acoustic properties in an IndoPacific humpback dolphin (Sousa chinensis), with investigation on the responses of soft tissue sound velocity to temperature

Computed tomography (CT) imaging and ultrasound experimental measurements were combined to reconstruct the acoustic properties (density, velocity, and impedance) of the head from a deceased Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin (Sousa chinensis). The authors extracted 42 soft forehead tissue samples to esti...
