Assessment of viscous and elastic properties of sub-wavelength layered soft tissues using shear wave spectroscopy : theoretical framework and in vitro experimental validation

In elastography, quantitative imaging of soft tissue elastic properties is provided by local shear wave speed estimation. Shear wave imaging in a homogeneous medium thicker than the shear wavelength is eased by a simple relationship between shear wave speed and local shear modulus. In thin layered o...
