Results obtained using dual-modality imaging system; (a) US B-mode image depicting locations of three embedded silicone tubes within a porcine tissue sample; (b) USF-ICG image overlaid onto US B-mode image with no threshold applied; (c) USF-ICG image overlaid onto US B-mode image with 50% pass through threshold applied; (d) binary image obtained by morphological operations; (e) final binary image without tail artifacts; (f) processed USF-ICG image (using (e)) overlaid onto US B-mode image; and (g) multi-color (red-ICG and green-ADP(OH)2 contrast agent) multi-modality processed image.
