Ultrasound elastography is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that maps
viscoelastic properties to characterize tissues and diseases. Elastography can be divided …

Background Ultrasound strain imaging, which delineates mechanical properties to detect
tissue abnormalities, involves estimating the time delay between two radio‐frequency (RF) …

In this paper, a phase-based direct average strain estimation method is developed. A
mathematical model is presented to calculate axial strain directly from the phase of the zero …

Fluid pressure and fluid velocity carry important information for cancer diagnosis, prognosis
and treatment. Recent work has demonstrated that estimation of these parameters is …

Three-dimensional ultrasound has been increasingly considered as a safe radiation-free
alternative to radiation-based fluoroscopic imaging for surgical guidance during computer …

Ultrasound poroelastography is a non-invasive imaging modality that has been shown to be
capable of estimating mechanical parameters such as Young's modulus (YM), Poisson's …

In this paper, we have evaluated the use of smooth windows for ultrasound elastography. In
ultrasound elastography, local tissue strain is estimated using operations such as cross …

Bone localization in ultrasound (US) remains challenging despite encouraging advances.
Current methods, eg local image phase-based feature analysis, showed promising results …

Accurate and robust timing of ultrasound echoes is important in many applications but is
difficult to achieve when dissipative solids are tested. In this case, the ultrasound waveforms …

A gasifier's temperature is the primary characteristic that must be monitored to ensure its
performance and the longevity of its refractory. One of the key technological challenges …
