A Normalized Shear Deformation Indicator for Ultrasound Strain Elastography in Breast Tissues: An In Vivo Feasibility Study
The shear deformation under loads contains useful information for distinguishing benign breast lesions from malignant ones. In this study, we proposed a normalized shear deformation indicator (NSDI) that was derived from the concept of principal strains. Since the NSDI requires both high-quality axi...
