Background, Motivation and Objective The scattering is the fundamental phenomena used for US imaging of specific organs. In this study the method searching for best fitted statistical distribution (moments, fractional moments and Lorentz estimator for Nakagami)) of the acquired echoes from the breast tissue is discussed, especially addressing the "effective" number of scatterers. The aim of the study was finding the relationship between Birads classification combined with envelope K and Nakagami statistics of the echoes backscattered in the breast tissue in vivo and the histological data for normal tissue and the pathological lesions.
