Differences of texture features in a the axial view of HHUS, b the three orthogonal views of ABUS and c coronal multislice views of ABUS for the same LW mesh. Note that the texture features of HHUS images reflect mixed properties of LW mesh overlapping fascia tissues. Therefore, it is difficult to identify the LW mesh itself separate from the fascia tissues that surround it (arrowheads). However, the new coronal plane of ABUS offers superior pore texture visualization, by separating the LW mesh (arrows) from the fascia (curved arrows) tissues
