Nonlinear elasticity imaging theory and phantom study

Nonlinear elasticity imaging : theory and phantom study

In tissue the Young's modulus cannot be assumed constant over a wide deformation range. For example, direct mechanical measurements on human prostate show up to a threefold increase in Young's modulus over a 10% deformation. In conventional elasticity imaging, these effects produce strain-...
