dc.description.abstractCancer is the most threatening disease for human life. Therefore, diagnosis of cancer is very important. For cancer diagnosis, many medical imaging systems have been developed. Ultrasonic imaging is one of them. Colon cancer presents a significant important statistics amongst all cancer types. Colon cancer is the third most common cancer diagnosed in all cancer cases. Both diagnosis of colon cancers and determining tumor limits precisely are quite important for patients’ lives and life quality. In this thesis, healthy and tumorous colon tissues from 3 different patients are examined by using Scanning Acoustic Microscopy. Ultrasonic properties of those tissues are presented. The difference of ultrasonic properties between healthy and tumorous colon tissues is observed. For a better determination of the tumor, a new computer program is developed providing detailed images and analysis tool.
