Minimally invasive treatments such as microwave ablation (MWA) have been growing in
popularity for extending liver cancer survival rates in patients, when surgery is not an option.
As a non-ionizing, real-time alternative to contrast-enhanced computed tomography,
electrode displacement elastography (EDE) has shown promise as an imaging modality for
MWA. Despite imaging efficacy, motion artifacts caused by physiological motion result in
unintended speckle pattern variance, thereby inhibiting consistent and accurate ablated …
