Viscoelastic imaging methods using acoustic radiation force
Elastography is a method of imaging the viscoelastic properties of soft tissue and similar media. It can be used for identifying various forms of cancer and fibrosis in soft tissue. Elastography can thus aid in diagnosis of such diseases, and in treatment procedures, such a biopsy needle guidance. A...
