Normalized cross-correlation (NCC) function used in ultrasound strain imaging can get
corrupted due to signal decorrelation inducing large displacement errors. Bayesian …

Objective. Tissue internal pressure, such as interstitial fluid pressure in solid tumors and
intramuscular pressure in compartment syndrome, is closely related to the pathological state …

In this letter, a phantom study is performed to investigate the feasibility of quantitative tissue
stiffness assessment of breast cancer masses using transfer learning ultrasound …

Imaging of tissue biomechanical properties like viscosity or nonlinear elasticity provide
additional information about tissue composition through its contrast imaging capability. Most …

Displacement estimation is an essential step for ultrasound elastography and numerous
techniques have been proposed to improve its quality using two frames of ultrasound RF …

Ultrasound elastography involves imaging tissue while it undergoes deformation and
inferring its mechanical properties from the deformation pattern. The initial deformation in the …

Ultrasound-based non-invasive elasticity imaging modalities have received significant
consideration for tissue characterization over the last few years. Though substantial …

We present a 3D extension of the Autoprogressive Method (AutoP) for quantitative quasi-
static ultrasonic elastography (QUSE) based on sparse sampling of force-displacement …

We propose a new method for strain field estimation in quasi-static ultrasound elastography
based on matching RF data frames of compressed tissues. The method benefits from using …

Background The convectional strain-based algorithm has been widely utilized in clinical
practice. It can only provide the information of relative information of tissue stiffness …
