Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrasound elastography: the new frontier in direct measurement of muscle stiffness.
Joline E. Brandenburg,Sarah F. Eby,Pengfei Song,Heng Zhao,Jeffrey S. Brault,Shigao Chen,Kai Nan An +6 more
TL;DR: Different ultrasoundElastography techniques for studying muscle stiffness are described, including strain elastography, acoustic radiation force impulse imaging, and shear-wave elastograph, including the strengths and limitations of their measurement capabilities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comb-Push Ultrasound Shear Elastography (CUSE): A Novel Method for Two-Dimensional Shear Elasticity Imaging of Soft Tissues
TL;DR: A novel shear elasticity imaging technique, comb-push ultrasound shear elastography (CUSE), is introduced in which only one rapid data acquisition is needed to reconstruct a full field-of-view 2-D shear wave speed map.
Journal ArticleDOI
Suture-button versus screw fixation of the syndesmosis: a biomechanical analysis
TL;DR: Suture-button fixation maintained reduction after cycling with submaximal loads that compared favorably to the intact syndesmosis and screw fixation and allowed more physiologic movement of the fibula in the sagittal plane when compared to tricortical screw fixation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrasonic evaluations of Achilles tendon mechanical properties poststroke
TL;DR: In vivo quantitative characterizations of the tendon biomechanical properties may help to better understand changes of the calf muscle-tendon unit as a whole and facilitate development of more effective treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast shear compounding using robust 2-D shear wave speed calculation and multi-directional filtering.
TL;DR: A multi-inclusion phantom experiment showed that the fast shear compounding method could provide a full field-of-view, 2-D and compounded shear elasticity map with three types of inclusions clearly resolved and stiffness measurements showing excellent agreement to the nominal values.
