Ultrasound elastography (USE) is a promising tool for tissue characterization as several
diseases result in alterations of tissue structure and composition, which manifest as changes …

Deep vein thrombosis is a common vascular disease that can lead to pulmonary embolism
and death. The early diagnosis and clot age staging are important parameters for reliable …

Objective. With the ultimate goal of reconstructing 3D elasticity maps from ultrasound particle
velocity measurements in a plane, we present in this paper a methodology of inverting for …

With the purpose of assessing localized rheological behavior of pathological tissues using
ultrasound dynamic elastography, an analytical shear wave scattering model was used in an …

Shear wave elastography (SWE) has been used to measure viscoelastic properties for
characterization of fibrotic livers. In this technique, external mechanical vibrations or acoustic …

Purpose: Different approaches have been used in dynamic elastography to assess
mechanical properties of biological tissues. Most techniques are based on a simple …

Inversion methods in shear wave elastography use simplifying assumptions to recover the
mechanical properties of soft tissues. Consequently, these methods suffer from artifacts …
