The compilation of the literature on ultrasonic propagation properties of mammalian tissues [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 64, 423 (1978)] is continued with the addition of 45 papers yielding over 700 lines of parametric data.

A detailed review of the literature on ultrasonic propagation properties of mammalian tissues and organs has revealed 144 papers containing compilable data. Over 1300 lines of parametric data are listed, including the tissue, species, age, specimen preparation, anatomical structure, pathology, temperature, measurement method, frequency, velocity, attenuation, acoustic impedance, and density.
