1. An oblique backscatter acoustic imaging system comprising:

  • a transmitting transducer configured to produce focused acoustic waves propagating into and through a target;

    two or more receiving transducers positioned on opposite sides of the transmitting transducer and configured to detect diffuse backscatter of the acoustic waves passing through the target; and

    a signal processor configured to receive a signal from at least one of the receiving transducers representative of the detected backscatter of the acoustic waves that have passed through the target and produce a signal representative of at least one of a phase-gradient contrast signal or an absorption contrast signal from the received signal.
