Estimation of the mechanical properties of soft tissues using a laser-induced microbubble interrogated by acoustic radiation force
This dissertation introduces a new approach to measure the mechanical properties of soft tissues. A laser-induced microbubble, created by focusing a single nanosecond laser pulse with a custom-made objective lens, was created at desired locations inside a tissue sample. An acoustic radiation force w...
