Elastogram: Physics, Clinical Applications, and Risks
Abstract. The tissue stiffness is always an interesting issue to clinicians. Traditionally, it is assessed by the manual palpation, and this now can be measured by the ultrasound-based elastography. The basic physics is based on Young's modulus through the Hooke's law: E= S/e, where the Yo...
