Dynamic elastography with finite element-based inversion

Tissue stiffness is often correlated to its pathological state and can be used as a basis for initial recognition of many tissue abnormalities. The term elastography refers to the class of medical imaging techniques that non-invasively measure the viscoelastic properties of soft tissue. Elastography...
