(2015-08-03)Ultrasound imaging is emerging as an attractive alternative modality to standard x-ray and CT methods for bone assessment applications. The high reflectivity at the bone/soft tissue interface that occurs due to high acoustic ...
-
(2011-10-21)Elastography is a non-invasive imaging modality that uses ultrasound to estimate the elasticity of soft tissues. The resulting images are called 'elastograms'. Elastography techniques are promising as cost-effective tools ...
-
(2012-02-14)In the study of the mechanical behavior of biological tissues, many complex tissues are often modeled as poroelastic systems due to their high fluid content and mobility. Fluid content and fluid transport mechanisms in ...
-
(2018-04-27)The goal of the work described herein was to initiate development of new theoretical and experimental tools specifically designed to improve bio-fidelity in the mechanical performance of tissue-engineered constructs. Of ...
-
(2011-08-08)New elastographic techniques such as poroelastography and viscoelasticity imaging aim at imaging the temporal mechanical behavior of tissues. These techniques usually involve the use of curve fitting methods as applied to ...
-
(2016-09-27)The use of an understanding of mechanical properties of tissues for the purposes of medical diagnosis has been going on since the foundation of the medical field as a science. In recent decades, medical ultrasound elastography ...
