Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) allows estimating the intrinsic tissue properties. Speckle statistics are the QUS parameters that describe the first order statistics of ultrasound (US) envelope data. The parameters of Homodyned K-distribution (HK-distribution) are the speckle statistics that can model the envelope data in diverse scattering conditions. However, they require a large amount of data to be estimated reliably. Consequently, finding out the intrinsic uncertainty of the estimated parameters can help us to have a better understanding of the estimated parameters. In this paper, we propose a Bayesian Neural Network (BNN) to estimate the parameters of HK-distribution and quantify the uncertainty of the estimator.
