Statistical Analysis of a Three-dimensional Axial Strain and Axial-shear Strain Elastography Algorithm

Pathological phenomena often change the mechanical properties of the tissue. Therefore, estimation of tissue mechanical properties can be of clinical importance. Ultrasound elastography is a well-established strain estimation technique. Until recently, mainly 1D elastography algorithms have been dev...
