highly reflective (white/yellowish). The subcutaneous fat and muscle fibers will return a low inten-
sity signal (dark green and black). See example below:

The Subcutaneous ultrasound image. Dermis is characterized by varying intensities (different colors), subcu-
tis by low-intensity (black/greenish) areas due to a homogenous composition separated by layers (vertical
lines) of colored connective tissue.

Intensity visualizes a superimposed yellow intensity curve based on the accumulated average of
all ultrasound A-scans within the image – the so-called Super A-scan (C). No numbers are pre-
sented as a result, but a concentration of high intensities appears as peaks on the curve and this
way serves as an indicator for the in-depth positioning of layers in the tissue.
