In order to estimate elasticity distribution of living soft tissue by ultrasonic pulse-echo
method, we developed an algorithm by which we estimate 2-D displacement vector field …

As a differential diagnosis technique of living soft tissues, we are developing ultrasonic
strain measurement-based shear modulus reconstruction methods. In this report, to stabilize …

In order to obtain noninvasively quantitative static mechanical properties of living tissue, the
authors propose a new type of inverse problem by which the spatial distribution of the …

In this report, we present the regularization results of displacement vector measurement by
the multidimensional cross-spectrum phase gradient method (MC-SPGM), multidimensional …

As a differential diagnosis technique for living soft tissues, we are developing ultrasonic-
strain-measurement-based shear modulus reconstruction methods. Previously, we reported …

An effective shear modulus reconstruction technique is described which uses ultrasonic
strain measurements for diagnosis of superficial tissues, ie our previously developed …

This paper investigates a new approach devoted to displacement vector estimation in
ultrasound imaging. The main idea is to adapt the image formation to a given displacement …

To obtain an accurate strain distribution under a large displacement, beyond ultrasonic
wavelength, the authors propose a method of reconstructing the strain distribution by …

Tissue mechanical properties such as elasticity are linked to tissue pathology state. Several
groups have proposed shear wave propagation speed to quantify tissue mechanical …

Most technologies for tissue elasticity imaging are now based on measurement of stain
distribution, since they are more suited to real-time processing than reconstruction of elastic …
