After X-radiography, ultrasound is now the most common of all the medical imaging
technologies. For millennia, manual palpation has been used to assist in diagnosis, but it is …

From times immemorial manual palpation served as a source of information on the state of
soft tissues and allowed detection of various diseases accompanied by changes in tissue …

This paper introduces two real-time elastography techniques based on analytic minimization
(AM) of regularized cost functions. The first method (1D AM) produces axial strain and …

Elastography is a new imaging modality where elastic tissue parameters related to the
structural organization of normal and pathological tissues are imaged. Basic principles …

In this paper we introduce a new speckle tracking method that is based on the standard time-
domain cross correlation strain estimation (TDE). We call this method time-domain cross …

Purpose: To prospectively determine the accuracy of using an ultrasonographic (US) strain
imaging technique known as lesion size comparison to differentiate benign from malignant …

The use of ultrasonic methods to track the tissue deformation generated by acoustic
radiation force is subject to jitter and displacement underestimation errors, with …

Ultrasound elastography is an emerging set of imaging modalities used to image tissue
elasticity and are often referred to as virtual palpation. These techniques have proven …

Ziel: Ultraschall-Elastographie ist ein neues bildgebendes Verfahren, welches die
Rekonstruktion der Elastizitätsverteilung erlaubt, indem es den Unterschied in der Festigkeit …

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) elastography is an imaging procedure used for the
visualization of tissue elasticity during usual EUS examinations. EUS elastography can be …
